an activity for preschoolers:
Use Colorations® No-Drip Foam Paint as a pretend “frosting” for making colorful cupcakes! Great for imaginary play and developing fine motor skills!

before you begin:
Gather Colorations® No-Drip Foam Paint and craft cups.

activity goals:
Explore color mixing
Develop fine motor skills
Enjoy pretend play time.

furthermore:
Use materials such as glitter or sequins as “cupcake sprinkles” to add extra sparkle to these “cupcakes.” Also, don’t throw away the cupcakes. Each one can be used to create a marbled paint picture!
let's get started

 
step 1
Separate craft cups.
step 2
Spray a layer of Colorations® No-Drip Foam Paint into craft cups.
step 3
Spray a different color of foam paint into a plastic baggie and seal. Cut off one corner of the baggie.
step 4
Just like real “frosting,” squeeze the foam paint out of the end of the plastic bag and onto the “cupcake” to make a layer of “frosting.”
