Salt painting




I introduced a new textile experience to the children this morning. I set the activity up with which coloured salt with powder paint mixed in. The main primary colours were in plastic bags. This activity required children to pour the salt out of holes in the plastic bags onto glued paper. Within this fun activity, children are exploring with a new sensory texture that provides them with an understanding of the nature and properties of salt (Te Whaariki, Exploration).
