Level: 3 - 5 years old
Materials: Music,
Tempera,
Lg. wide roll of paper,
Paint brushes,
Paint shirts
Procedure:
Kids love to move to music, so this activity is a natural.
Try to use music from current kids movies, along with favorite sing-a-longs.
The first time we do this, I have the kids practice moving around the table,
making pretend marks with the brushes, as they go.
Tape the paper to long tables, and set up small tubs of tempera, with a brush
for each tub, at various points around the table. Each child stands at a
paint tub and will begin painting, as they move around the table, when the
music starts. The kids will play a kind of musical chairs, stopping painting
when the music stops. They love it
