Making Sunshine

Happy Solstice!
First day of summer, I almost forgot.
So quickly changed focus at the art table today.
Even though the sun was shining for us outside
we made our own sunshine inside.
 They spooned powder paint on to the tray,
and sprinkles if they wished.
Then sprayed water like rain falling.
 She asked how do we mix it,
we wiggled
our fingers
and her face lit up.
 She added a bit more paint (I mixed a little flour in the paint to make it thicker)
 Then made a print,
She now has her own sunshine to take home.
Hope you enjoyed the longest day of the year.

    1. Sandi I bought them 4 years ago when I set up this StrongStart centre. They're either from Wintergreen or Scholar's Choice. I think.
