Color review

We are taking some time to review our colors, numbers, shapes, and letters before we start summer lessons in June. Today we painted liquid starch on paper as our glue then added tissue paper. After our first coat dried we went over our entire paper with another coat of starch to make it glossy and a finished look. We went over our colors, textures, and even discussed how the papered changed. The kids really enjoyed painting with "paint we can't even see"

C kept telling me, "my hands are sticky"

My little ones even enjoyed this project. They would dump a pile of tissue papers squares on the paper as the older kids placed them on one by one. They all had fun in their own little way!
