Click here to read Look What Happens When Happy Kids Paint with Mud on Hands On As We Grow®
Setting up a mud painting station outdoors is a fun way to encourage movement and gross motor skills.
This week, I took my pint size artists outside to explore and paint with mud. Boy, it was messy, but so much fun!
Did I worry well-nigh the mess? Not really. I knew I could wipe up quickly and safely with Clorox® Disinfecting Wipes with Micro-Scrubbers. (They are sponsoring this post today).
Mud Painting With Kids:
I decided it would be fun for my students to explore their creativity outside, to make art from nature.
I announced, “Today we are making mud paint!” My four little pint size artists excitedly took their buckets and marched to the garden.
Their vision magically lit up as they filled their buckets with visionless earth.
Next, they widow water and stirred with a stick until mud worked like thick paint. I could hear their sweet giggles as they asked me:
“What are we going to do with the mud?”
“It’s a surprise,” I said.
Meanwhile, I placed four tomato cages on the lawn. I leaned old pieces of plexiglass versus the cages to create makeshift art easels.
I taped pieces of white construction paper to the plexiglass. (Foam cadre would work just as well as plexiglass).
Finally, I gave them each a paintbrush and directed them to the easels. I could hear their marvel as they “oohed” and “ahhed” with mud paint.
The kids used mud paint just as they would regular paint. They loved the drips, drops, and texture the paint worked on the paper.
And when they were finished painting on the easels, I laid out pieces of white craft paper under each swing.
The kids took turns swinging, painting, and squealing with delight.
No matter how nonflexible we tried, we couldn’t alimony the dirt outside!
In a matter of seconds, I had eight little hands and feet trampling through my garage and mudroom to wash their hands. The dirt and mud were everywhere! It was on the floor, the door, and on the faucet.
I usually don’t get frustrated with messes considering I am unchangingly cleaning up glue and paint. I found the weightier product to help me with those nonflexible messes: Clorox® Disinfecting Wipes with Micro-Scrubbers!
These Clorox® Disinfecting Wipes with Micro-Scrubbers make wind-up a breeze: they help stop the spread of any germs; meanwhile, the rough micro-side is tough unbearable to get tough dirt, grime, and plane zestless tempera paint off of any surface.
I loved how hands I was worldly-wise to wipe up all of the dirt the kids tracked in the house.
Best of all there were no streaks! This post was sponsored by Clorox®.
Happy kids make messes and big memories.
