Kids Activity: Spray Painting for Pebble Silhouettes

The last time we spray painted, we had used bigger bottles. Not that they aren't fun, its just that the holes for spraying are a tad big, i.e., a little spraying was enough to soak the paper and detrimental to creating silhouettes. I then went looking around for smaller spray bottles, available as disposable travel packs at beauty stores. These were fabulous! The spraying is subtle!

We brought out his colored glass pebbles, the ones we used extensively for counting. Arranged it randomly over his drawing sheet.

His color choices always amaze me. He picked pink and brown. I would've never selected pink and brown- It had never occurred to me that they complement each other beautifully!

Then sprayed away to glory!

For some reason he wasn't able spray as easily as me- and would hand it over to me in frustration: It's not coming out! I tossed one sprayer out and replaced it with another. Spray bottles are delicate!
