We all have plenty of sunscreen at home during the summer...why not make some art with it?

You will need:
-Sunscreen
-Paintbrush
-Black construction paper

Squeeze some sunscreen onto a plate and then use a paintbrush to paint the sunscreen onto black construction paper. Once their painting is complete, take it outside and lay it in direct sun for a few hours. Go check on it after a few hours, and you'll see that the areas of the paper covered in sunscreen (paint) are the same color. The rest of the paper will be faded. The sunscreen blocked the sun and kept the color intact.
