Steps

1

Keep all the material ready on the work desk.

Put some red, yellow, blue and green colour in four separate bowls.
Take some beads & a small shallow plastic tub, place a white sheet in the tub.

2

Let your child put a few beads in each of the bowls.
Swirl the bowls to coat the beads with colour.

3

Ask your child to choose a few coloured beads from the bowls and place them on the sheet in the tub and move the tub back and forth.

4

Show your child how to hold the ends of the tray and move it back and forth.

As the beads roll they will leave a trail on the paper.

Take the beads out & let the paper dry.


Keep soapy water and hand towels ready to wash after the painting is done.
