Canvas Art Work With Kiddos

A few years ago I helped my kiddos make these. We painted the background beige then let it dry. Later I gave them tools and two colors to work with. They used the tools. And I got them all to put at least one hand print on their canvas. I think these are probably my favorite artwork ever:) 

 I saw this idea on Pinterest. I was low on acrylics at the time. So Princess helped do the base coat of yellow spray paint. Which was a bit scary to her. She hates spray paint.
And this will be the next thing we make on canvas.

  2. aww! That is so sweet. I bet they enjoyed making them. And the fact that you hung them up probably made them feel awesome:) Plus its always nice to see that stuff when you are having a bad day:)
