I’ve been seeing this done on, oh, just about everybody’s blog lately, and we just had to do it!
I gave M a big selection of paint colors – I was trying to get the last little bit of paint out of a lot of his paint bottles, so he had just about every color of the rainbow there.
We started with little bubbles, and painted a section of the paper with a paintbrush, then pressed the bubble wrap into that and then again onto the paper:
You can see in the picture that we made both negative and positive prints.
Then the big bubbles (I can’t remember where I found this huge bubble wrap, but it came in handy!):
Hey, did you know that if you mix all the colors of the rainbow you get brown? I know because I trustingly left the room for just a moment and came back to see this:
So much for the bubble wrap. Apparently trucks are more fun, hee hee. :) And painting your arms too. Not that I was doing much laughing at the time…
So, here’s our bubble wrap / truck-in-the-mud finished peice of art:
Have a beautiful day! :)
Ha ha trucks are creative too! =)

ReplyDeletegood going!
I just popped over from 1+1+1=1 and I just have to say you are one brave mama! I think I would freak if my kids had that much paint all over their hands and arms! {smile}
ReplyDeleteI was going to write something more than "OH MY" but I can't stop laughing to type. I wish I was there (but not my kids though) to witness the clean-up. God Bless, you are a better mom than me!!
