Kid’s Fun: From Brushes to Blocks

Forget the brush. Try painting with blocks!

What you’ll need:

  • Paint
  • Paper or Canvas (We used Crayola-brand canvas boards)
  • LOTS of wipes or paper towels

Steps:

1. Pick your paint colors and blocks then start painting.

2. Be sure to try all different sizes of blocks and make fun patterns.

3. Admire your work!

Want more fun? Add nuts and bolts and to the paint and see what you can create.
