Scissors and Scotch Tape Saturday: Finger Painting Canvas

Have your kiddos create new artwork for your walls this weekend!  Purchase a canvas of any size at a craft store (we like Discount School Supply) and tape off your child's name with painter's tape.
Lay the canvas on a drop cloth and let your kiddo finger paint until their heart's content.
Once the paint is dry, remove the tape and your child's name will still be there!

Another option, paint the entire canvas a solid color (lighter is better), then tape off your kiddo's name.  Have them finger paint over the tape with coordinating colors to the canvas.  When you remove the tape you will have a piece of artwork that goes along with any color scheme you choose.

Encourage your little artists to be creative and HAVE FUN!
