For today’s Halloween related activity we practiced on pincer grasp and hand eye coordination.
(I was actually doing this activity for open ended art but I didn’t link up to open ended art because it was too structured to be considered open ended art.)
Materials needed: Printed pumpkins on paper, food coloring, medicine dropper, and some water.
Deen poured the water into the ice tray and then we added red and yellow colorings. We then mixed red and yellow to make orange.
Then Deen had to squeeze and transfer the orange food coloring to the pumpkins on the paper.
I made the paper by googling pumpkin coloring pages, then copying the image and pasting it into word. I then printed it out onto normal computer paper.
I love this idea! I'd put it as open ended, but I think I have a looser definition.
I know Matthew would LOVE this activity! Did the water eventually soak into the paper, or did you need to soak it up somehow? It looks like Deen had a lot of fun!
