After removing the labels (you know how to do that, right? No? I'll blog about that later.) Sooooo....I removed the labels and then I made up some squeezable paint. I used a very simple recipe of equal parts flour, salt, water and food colouring. And there was just a little bit of bubble bath in the bottom of the bottle. Here's the link to the recipe I used at FamilyEducatiom.com It was a bit of a tricky task getting my paint into the narrow openings of the bottles. The mixture was too thick to go through a funnel. I put my mixture into a plastic bag and snipped a bit of corner off to get the mixture into the bottle.
My buddies had a hard time squeezing hard enough to get the paint out at first. (I made a mental note to provide more hand strengthening activities.) They really enjoyed squeezing the paint out once they got used to using it. I think we will be doing this again soon!
