Kids painting with cars...
Paint Splatter All Around

Your kids painting does not have to be made the conventional way. Try to think outside the box. On a cold winter's day, Eytan was playing with cars and he wanted to paint, so we combined the two! He was so happy to roll the cars in the paint and then just send them rolling on the paper.

I find that boys in particular like this paint activity. I'd recommend to use a variety of cars (big and small) so your child can explore different wheel sizes and textures.

I cut out my son's creation in the shape of a car to make it a little more fun.
