Psst. Do you need an easy activity to do today so you can make it to nap time /rest time /dinner time? We’ve got one for you! This super easy, wall portrait activity feels special to kids because they get to draw on a different surface. Similar to our Mexican Tin Art activity, just changing one aspect of a familiar activity can make it feel brand new. Today, we’ll switch from painting on a table to painting vertically, like an artist using a canvas.

Links to our favorite supplies for this activity:

• Tempera paint sticks

• Big roll of paper, you can also find these at Target or IKEA

• Painters tape, a staple for many activities
