1. Spread newspaper over your work area.
2. Pour yellow and white Crayola® Washable Kid's Paint on foam produce trays or other disposable containers.
3. Dip a sponge or bath scrunchy in paint. Gently press onto black or dark blue construction paper to make tiny flecks and patterns that resemble twinkling lights. Or spatter paint on a clean recycled toothbrush with your thumb. Dry.
Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project. Observe children closely and intervene as necessary to prevent potential safety problems and ensure appropriate use of arts and crafts materials. Some craft items, particularly beads and buttons, are potential choking hazards for young children. Avoid use of such small parts with children younger than 3 years. Craft items such as scissors, push pins and chenille sticks may have sharp points or edges. Avoid use of materials with sharp points by children younger than 4 years. Read all manufacturers' safety warnings before using arts and craft supplies.
