a balloon
green, yellow, and orange paint
a piece of paper
2. Have your child dip the balloon into the paint and press it on the paper.
4. Dip the balloon into orange paint to make the head.
5. Add a face and antennae and cut out your caterpillar.
This is so cute! The balloons made perfect sized prints for a fun caterpillar!
ReplyDeleteAdorable! Definitely getting added to our to do list! This activity will go perfect with the butterfly Live Butterfly Garden I just ordered on sale with Amazon! Yippee!
ReplyDeleteNeat-o! I like how the 2 colors mixed :)
ReplyDeleteLove how they turned out! Care to join us with your toddler activity ideas in weekly link up? As a bear is our mascot, we named it High paw ;)
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, this is great! We will definitely be trying this.
ReplyDeleteThis is super creative and SO cute! Thanks so much for sharing, I'll be linking!
ReplyDeleteI love this idea for using balloons! We had a little bit a balloon extravaganza last week - we painted ON the balloons though, not with them. Maybe we'll have to try something like this too, I bet the children loved it!
ReplyDeleteJamie @ hands on : as we grow
