Fun Painting Ideas for Kids & the Love to Learn Linky


Happy Thursday, thanks for stopping by! I can’t believe it is the last day of July, this summer is flying by. Today it’s all about painting so get your little artists ready because I am sure you will find something fun to create! These are some of our favorite fun painting ideas from the Love to Learn Linky party. If you missed last weeks party you can catch all of the kid activities here.

This week we are excited to announce a new co-host to the Love to Learn Linky- Sue from One Time Through. I would love it if you stopped by and said hi, her blog is full of amazing activities for kids and insightful parenting tips that I love to read! I would be shocked if you didn’t find something that catches your eye. My kiddos loved her Hopping Corn Science Activity.

Now let’s get painting! 


1.  Bubble Wrap Shape Printing By Multi Crafting Mummy
2.  Cardboard Princess Castle By If These Cheerios Could Talk
3.  Paint Filled Water Balloons By Our Little House in the Country
4.  Painted Clay Flower Pots By Krafts and Kiddos
5.  Glow in the Dark Ice Paint By Mini Monets and Mommies

Awesome ideas right!?! I would love to hear which one is your favorite!
