Straw Painting

YET ANOTHER WONDERFULLY FUN ORAL-MOTOR ACTIVITY!

Materials:

Drinking straws of various diameters
Water based tempera paint in fun colors
Paper

Drop a dollop of paint on the paper and have the young artist blow it into spectacular designs. Add additional colors and watch what happens.

Straws of different lengths and diameters will offer more or less blowing resistance, so experiment with what you child can do.
