This week the children have been really interested in painting. To extend their learning in this area we have done a number of different activities such as …
Water painting
The children made the paper very wet and then used their fingers to sprinkle powder paint on to it.
Ball painting
The children used plastic balls covered in paint and rolled them around to create different marks.
String painting
The children cut and used wood to dip in paint and create patterns.
All of these activities help develop their fine motor skills and movement control as well as mark making.
