Painting Stripes

 

Materials
Tempera paint 
White Paper
Paint brush 
Work surface (table)

Directions
Secure a piece of white drawing paper to the table surface. Using a marker, draw lines down the paper approximately two inches apart. Pour tempera paint into a paint cup or on a small paper plate. Encourage your toddler to use a paint brush to paint a stripe between each of the marker lines on paper.  Allow to dry, then display.

This activity encourages your toddler to track with his eyes and control of the paint brush.
