Big Art!

*This post contains affiliate links*

We’ve done some big art before and J always really loves it.  I guess it’s because he gets to use his whole body and get some of his favorite toys involved too.  He’s not much for sitting and painting with paint brushes. 

I simply rolled out a big sheet of white paper and added some paper plates with paint.  I also added a paper towel roll and a couple of paint brushes.

I love how J got his whole body involved in the painting process.

He made a bit of a mess, but he had a great time exploring the paint.

His favorite part was making colorful handprints…

and of course getting his dump truck involved in the painting too.

Painting like this is a great full body sensory experience that works both fine and large motor skills. 

Here are the materials you’ll need for this project.

    I love the photo where JJ is seeing whether the truck wheel is going in the paint, evidence that there’s a thinking process in all this wonderful art!

    If your art piece arrives damaged, you can always send it back,
    requesting for another one. Now you can buy your complete art stuff online through galleries and museums.

    Ivory, jade and stained glass were common materials for accessories, which were usually tall
    and thin and graceful, with gentle curves.
