JoAnn's had the canvas on sale so that was a bonus. The kids then picked out some paint. Selah picked pink, purple, and yellow, and Titus picked yellow, blue, and green.
I used painters tape to write there names. This tape is easy to pull off and I was happy with the results. There were only a couple small spots where paint seeped through a little bit.
It was fun watching the two paint. Titus used a brush for a little bit then had fun using his fingers. Selah on the other hand did not want her color's to mix. She used her fingers for most of her painting.
So what do you think? I LOVE THEM!!!!! :) I think we might have to do this again! :)

Those are cute! It's great seeing kiddos create something all on their own.
We did something similar last winter, but I used stickers for the letters. http://gratefullygrowingingrace.blogspot.com/2012/03/home-made-sticker-canvas.html
