Just your yearly reminder 😊

May is National Water Safety Month.

At daycare, we use only small amounts of water or water directly from a sprinkler, so using that color for water play is totally fine. However, this post is more geared toward parents taking their kids to pools and beaches.

12 Fun Things Toddlers Can Paint With in May (That Aren't Paintbrushes)

1. Fingers and Hands
Toddlers love finger painting, and it’s a perfect way to explore textures and colors while getting a little messy.

2. Sponges
Cut sponges into fun shapes or use them whole. Toddlers can dab, stamp, and smear paint to create fun patterns.

3. Toothbrushes
Old toothbrushes make great painting tools! Kids can experiment with flicking the bristles for a splatter-paint effect.

4. Cotton Balls
Dip them in paint and use tongs, fingers, or clothespins to dab and drag them across the paper. It’s like painting with fluffy clouds!

5. Feathers
Soft and wispy, feathers create unique, light strokes on paper. Your toddler will enjoy the delicate feel as they paint.

6. Toy Cars
Roll paint-covered toy car wheels across paper and watch as colorful tracks come to life.

7. Cookie Cutters
Dip cookie cutters in paint and stamp them onto paper. It’s like creating artwork and decorating cookies at the same time!

8. Forks
Plastic forks can create funky lines and textures. Toddlers will find it fascinating to drag the prongs through the paint.

9. Bubble Wrap
Wrap a piece of bubble wrap around their hands or a rolling pin. Add some paint and press or roll for fun, textured shapes.

10. Leaves
Go for a nature walk, collect leaves, and use them as stamps or brushes. It’s a perfect way to combine art and outdoor adventure.

11. Cotton Swabs
Tiny artists will enjoy painting smaller details or dots using cotton swabs. They’re easy for little hands to hold, too!

12. String or Yarn
Dip string or yarn into paint and drag it across the paper for bold, flowing strokes. Experiment with different lengths for added fun.
