Today we're kicking off our A Very Toddler Summer Series hosted yesteryear me (Kristina at Toddler Approved) in addition to Jenae at I Can Teach My Child. We're sharing a super uncomplicated fine art activeness reckon for toddlers!! This projection is procedure focused in addition to perfect to do OUTSIDE!

This spray fine art activeness for toddlers only requires a few things in addition to is totally addicting!! It is also messy then live prepared! 

Our A Very Toddler Summer series is a 10 twenty-four hr menstruum serial total of uncomplicated activities for toddlers! On Mondays in addition to Wednesdays I'll portion activeness ideas targeted for 2-3 twelvemonth olds in addition to on Tuesdays in addition to Thursdays Jenae volition portion activeness ideas to a greater extent than for 1-2 twelvemonth olds. On Fridays we'll portion several other favorite summertime activeness ideas for toddlers that we've establish roughly the web!

To larn started alongside our Spray Art activeness you'll but postulate a few uncomplicated materials:

• spray bottles (4+ spray bottles makes it to a greater extent than fun, I only had 2 in addition to that worked fine equally well)
• liquid watercolors (you could also but dilute washable paint)
• water
• large slice of paper (I used a gyre of easel paper, you lot could also role large foam board)
• something to concord downward the newspaper (if you lot are on a difficult surface you lot could role painters tape, or nosotros but used shoes on our grass)
• towel (just inwards example kids start spraying themselves :))

My boy is 2.5 in addition to is currently obsessed alongside spray bottles. We beloved to roam the yard alongside our spray bottle total of H2O in addition to but spray things in addition to pigment the debate alongside water. 

Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 few days agone nosotros decided to alter our activeness a fleck in addition to add together some liquid H2O colors to our spray bottles total of water.

You postulate to brand certain to add together plenty color then that the pigment sprays nighttime or else it doesn't actually demo upwardly on the white paper.

Once your spray bottles are total of liquid H2O colors (watered downward alongside water), gyre out or lay out some newspaper in addition to you're cook to create!!

This spray fine art activeness is only procedure centered in addition to non most creating a finished production that looks inwards whatsoever agency pretty or a specific way.

My toddler but sprayed in addition to sprayed in addition to created rivers of colorful H2O in addition to sprayed bugs that flew onto the newspaper in addition to was IN HEAVEN for the fifteen minutes this activeness lasted. If we'd had to a greater extent than than 2 colors he in all likelihood would've sprayed fifty-fifty longer.

He did movement to spray himself once, but didn't beloved what happened, then didn't attempt it again.

This activeness was then fun that eventually my older kids establish us exterior in addition to had to come upwardly bring together inwards too. Three kids summation 2 spray bottles called for some practiced plough taking practise in addition to some patience. :)

Later this calendar week nosotros invention to attempt this activeness in 1 lawsuit again using some baking soda, spray bottles, in addition to vinegar in addition to do some Squirt Gun Science (using spray bottles) that was discovered over at No Time for Flashcards.

We may also attempt in addition to brand some Spray Art cast projects similar nosotros did alongside our Water Gun painting.

Modifying for Younger Toddlers

If you lot accept a younger toddler who isn't that peachy alongside a spray bottle yet, select grip of some turkey basters (cheap at the Dollar store) or droppers in addition to do some drip painting onto your large newspaper instead.
