Writer: The Gardening TeamThe Gardening Team

Make a splash this summer with some wall worthy art made from Squirt Gun Painting.


Gardener Anna and Gardener Aidan had a blast with this cool summertime craft. .


With minimal materials needed this a great outdoor activity that helps kids develop their fine motor skills, be creative, get outside and have FUN!


Kids of all ages love a good summer art project and water gun painting is definitely one to put on your to-do list!



Take it from Gardener Anna: Let positivity grow!



 



Materials Needed For Squirt Gun Painting:

-water color paper

-tempra paints

-squirt guns

-easel (or clip paper to a clothesline)

For a fun twist we made letters and a smiley face with painters tape. We let the paint completely dry before removing the tape.
