Another activity we tried in preschool was painting with hammers on houses! I wasn’t able to catch this activity in action but here is the basic idea…
A simple white house shape is glued to black construction paper…
The children draw doors and windows on their houses.
Dip the head of a toy hammer in tempera paint then hammer away on the house…
A little messy but lots of fun!
Like you say, a little messy… but it’s a nice way for kids to be creative while letting out a little pent up energy.
LOL – yes it is!
I would have never thought of this, thank you for sharing it.
You are welcome:)
Deborah, I have painted with many things in my time…but never a hammer. I can’t wait to try it out!
Haha! It is always fun to find something simple and new:)
How fun I can’t wait to do this!
