Children will see that every hand print is different as they work together on a colorful cooperative rainbow art project.
What You Need:
- Multicolored paints of your choice
- Large paper or cardboard
- Trays to put paint on for hand prints
- Optional: rubber gloves
What You Do:
- Ask the children, “Who would like to make a rainbow with their hand print?”
- Ask the children to choose a color they want their hand print to be.
- Ask each child to put their hand out, spreading their fingers.
- Let the child dip his/her hand into the color of their choice.
- Place the child’s hand onto the row of their color choice.
- Discuss the differences in size, shape and color of all the children’s hand prints.
