Shamrock Rolling Pin Art Fun
Set out tempera paints in yellow, white, and shades of green. Invite your little learner to spoon dabs of paint over a paper shamrock.
_______
Then ask your little one to roll a rolling pin over the paint.
_______
A paper towel roll works well to move paint around too. On the shamrock below, a pattern of paint was spread vertically. Then a paper towel roll was rolled up and down to give the striped effect. There are diagonal lines left from the paper roll on the shamrock…I kind of like them!
_______
The paint can also be splattered on diagonally, with the rolling pin to squish the paint around positioned the same way.
