Steps

  • Step 1

    This project is designed for children who can blow OUT of the straw. Close adult supervision is required. Cover your work area with recycled newspaper. With a plastic spoon, place small dots of Crayola Washable Kid's Paint on white paper. If paint is thick, add water.

  • Step 2

    Hold a straw to your lips and gently blow OUT onto the paint. Watch the air from the straw move the paint. Caution: Only blow OUT. Blowing too long or hard could make you dizzy. Dry.

  • Step 3

    Experiment with different colours, amounts of paint, and placing the straw closer or farther away from the paper. Mix colours to create new shades and tints.
