Salty Painting
What you will need: salt, food coloring, water, paintbrush and paper.
Mix together salt, water and coloring to make your salt paint. Have child paint and leave the paper to dry. The water will dry and leave the salt behind. Ask your child, “What does the painting look like without the water?”
Afterwards, I thought it would be a great activity to do for a winter scene because it looks icy when it is dry.
Learning moment: Salt absorbs water, like in the ocean. The salt is attracted to water.
