St. Patrick\u2019s Color Mixing Foil painting<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Yet another perfect and mess-free craft for pre-k, this foil painted clover is great for children in pre-k or kindergarten because it helps with fine motor skills and limits the mess made when painting. <\/p>\n\n\n

Another great thing about foil painting is that there is limited teacher prep here, which we all know saves teachers time! The dream!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You need:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

\u25cf Aluminum Foil<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u25cf Scissors<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u25cf Paint (any color will work!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u25cf Paper shaped like a shamrock, leprechaun, or pot of gold!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To make:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

\u25cf Cut the aluminum foil using scissors into smaller, more manageable sizes for little hands. Each student will need one piece of foil for each color they want to use. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u25cf Place a few drops of whatever colored paint you want to use on ta paint pallet next to the shamrock or leprechaun or pot of gold you will be foil painting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u25cf Gently crumple the foil into a ball and dip it into the color you want to start painting with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u25cf The paint that was on the foil will be blotted onto the design. You can use different foil to layer as many colors onto your painting as you want. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The supplies on this easy craft for kids can be used multiple times because they can use the foil over and over again!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
