Pizza base & bubble wrap Easter crafts

I originally posted this last year, but it's a great activity to visit again ...


Today we started some Easter crafts. First we printed using pizza bases.

Using a pencil, make your pattern on the base.

Cover your design in poster paint.

I cut out some egg shapes for printing.

Then we added bubble wrap into the mixture...

and coloured sand, and did more printing.

It's so therapeutic, moving the paint around and popping the bubbles.

Some of our printed eggs and pictures.

It's a great tactile experience; and if your child doesn't like getting paint on their hands, it's great fun to just put some bubble bath and water on the wrap and have a play - it feels so nice!
