Experimenting with Puffy Paint
Since painting is one of my children’s favorite activities, we do it often. Very often. So occasionally I feel the need to mix it up a little. I remembered that London’s preschool class painted with ‘puffy paint’ throughout the year, and I thought we would give it a try. But of course, instead of looking up instructions on how to make puffy paint, I thought we could play around and make our own. Here goes……
Here are the materials we used:

My children and I were very unscientific when it came to determining the amount of things to use. ”That looks about right.”
“How about a little more glue.”
Time to mix in the paint.
Now to paint!

We ended up adding more shaving cream to the mix.
Puffy paint success!
