Activity For Kids:
Puffy paint
The first time I saw puffy paint in action was when I first started Playcentre with my son. All the kids were excited and engaged with the puffy paint activity.
It was also fun microwaving the puffy paint and seeing what it looks like.
This is a simple activity that does not require a lot of supplies.
This activity is inspired by ideas from Puffy paint.
What you'll learn
This activity is great to teach your kids:
Creative activities help children express themselves and create something from nothing, explore materials and activities and use their imagination.
Colour recognition activities helps children get to know the different colors and color blending and matching.
Science experiments are fun to do for kids and also teaches them a lot of skills such as interacting with the world around them and understanding how things work.
Sensory play is play that involves all the senses - taste, sound, sight, touch and smell. Sensory play is very beneficial to children. Research shows that sensory play builds nerve connections in the brain’s pathways, which lead to the child’s ability to complete more complex learning tasks. Sensory play is also very relaxing and rejuvenating to children.
