<\/p>\nSponge Flower Painting is simple and easy and creates the prettiest flower pictures! We love how easy this sponge painting technique is even for very young children. This is a flower art that\u2019s great for kids across the ages and is a wonderful way to celebrate Spring and Summer.<\/p>\n
You can create a single flower picture or a whole bouquet, these painted flowers won\u2019t fail to delight.\u00a0 Make gorgeous wall art, greeting cards or paint flowers onto canvas for delightful Mother\u2019s Day gifts.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It\u2019s always fun to let kids experiment with different painting techniques isn\u2019t it? Some of our past favourites are Edible Bread Painting,<\/a> Rainbow Handprint Painting<\/a>,\u00a0Shake Painting\u00a0<\/a>and Cotton Ball Painting<\/a>.<\/p>\n Broadening children\u2019s painting experiences away from traditional brushes is a great way to encourage their creative development and exploration.<\/p>\n 1 \u2013 Sponge Flower Painting works best if the paint is a little on the runny side so we like to mix our paints with a few drops of water in a bowl.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n 2 \u2013 It can be helpful to draw the flower stems and leaves onto your canvas<\/a> with marker pens before you start painting.\u00a0You can of course add some grass and anything else you fancy. Maybe a little ladybug or butterfly too.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n 3 \u2013 To start your flower painting dip the dishwashing sponge<\/a> into one of your paint colours. Lift it out of the paint and let any excess drip off for a second or two.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n 4 \u2013 Gently dab the sponge head<\/a> onto your canvas to make a print. We did a yellow print first in the corner to make a sun before moving on to the flowers.<\/p>\n 5 \u2013 To change paint colours wash the sponge and squeeze it dry with a towel. I like to have a washing up bowl of soapy water next to the children so they can wash the sponge right where they are rather than having to get up and go to the sink each time. You can of course buy multi sets of sponges<\/a> so there\u2019s less need to wash.<\/p>\n 6 \u2013 Continue to dip the sponge<\/a> into your paint colours and print the flowers onto the top of the stems you drew.<\/p>\n Sponge Flower Painting is so effective and easy isn\u2019t it!<\/p>\n More Fun Spring Crafts For Kids<\/a>:<\/p>\n Springy 3D Paper Bee Craft For Kids<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/div>\n 15 Free Insect Life Cycle Film Strip Activities For Kids<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/div>\n Cute Frog Headband Craft For Kids (Printable Template)<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t![\"ART](\"https:\/\/kidscraftroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Edible-paint-recipe-rainbow-bread-square-150x150.jpg\")
