Equipment

  • Crayola Washable Finger Paints
  • Crayola Washable Markers - Brown
  • Paper Plates

Ingredients

  • Finger Paint Red, Orange, Yellow, Green and Brown
  • Marker Brown
  • Dried Pumpkin Seeds
  • White Construction Paper
  • Paper Plates
  • Paper Towel or Baby Wipes

Instructions

  • Start with your paper and draw a tree with bare branches. You can draw just the outline or color it in.
  • Pour a small amount of each color of paint on your paper plate, spaced out.
  • Have your child place one pumpkin seed in each color.
  • Help them pick up a seed and use it to “stamp” leaf shapes on the tree. Use one color at a time.
  • Between colors, wipe your child’s fingers with the paper towel or baby wipes. This will help minimize color mixing.
  • Continue until you’ve used all the colors and the tree is covered as much as your child wants it to be.
  • Add “leaves” as if they are falling to the ground, or leaf shapes on the
    bottom of your paper under the tree, as if they were on the ground.
  • Set aside to dry.
  • Repeat! (If your kids want to...)
