Art Project:: Bubble Wrap Fall Tree

Article submitted by RaisingGreenKids, blog - RaisingGreenRichmondKids

Have your little ones create Fall trees using leftover bubble wrap. This is a fun and super easy eco-friendly craft for little ones of all ages.

What you'll need:
paper - heavier stock paper works best
cut squares of bubble wrap. mine were about 4x4
paints-yellow,red,orange,brown
brown markers or crayons

Directions:

If you child is older they can draw their own tree trunk, if they are younger draw it for them.
Put a thin layer of each color of paint on a left over lid or reusable bowl or plate.
Show your child how to take the square of bubble wrap into their hand and dip it into the paint, then dab up and down on the paper in different spots above the tree trunk.
Use different colors to create a fun Fall picture. Enjoy!

Jeni opened her shop after her second child was born and she became a stay at home mom. She loves finding really cute and bright fabric to create with and sometimes her children "claim" items that are meant for her shop (I think all of us with kids have had this happen!).

In honor of her children's imaginary polka dot and rainbow houses, she has chosen "Polka Dot" and "Rainbow" as this week's theme. I can't wait to see what colorful and creative creations the team comes up with! Catch a sneak peak on Etsy.
