Mess-Free Toddler Art

A few days ago, Charlotte & I made this no-mess Easter egg "sun catcher." 

I squeezed globs of a few colors of finger paint on top of a piece of wax paper. Then Charlotte helped drizzle glitter glue (the most exciting part, if you ask her) all over the wax paper. 


Next, I put another piece of wax paper on top of the paint/glue & Charlotte squished & smeared & pressed & patted until she was satisfied with how the colors swirled together. 



We let it dry overnight, then I cut it out into egg shape & added a pink construction paper frame (all freehand, so please no nit-picking on the imperfections!). I used tape to put it up on the playroom window so we all can enjoy her lovely work of art. :-)

No mess, no cleanup, and lots of fun!
