Toddler Activities: Game

Zippy Sponge Painting 
 
What could be better than a contained painting project that will keep your toddler's hands clean! You'll need some Gallon size ziplock bags, a sponge, paper, and kids paint. Put the paper in the bag. Then take a moist sponge and cut it into smaller pieces. Press each piece of sponge into a different color paint and then put them all inside the bag and close it. Then put the bag on the table and let your toddler squish down on the sponges and see how they put the paint on the paper. Let him shake the bag to move the sponges around and squeeze down on them again. Then when he's done take out the paper and let it dry! No mess!!!!

Supplies Needed-
- dishwashing sponge
- paintbrush
- kids washable paints
- paper

Tips/Suggestions-
- You still might want to put some newspaper on the table just in case some mess spills out of the bag.
- Don't put too much paint on the sponges, but just enough on both sides to let your toddler get some paint on the paper.
