Give each child one paper towel square. (Plain white with some texture works best.) Provide each student with a cup of diluted liquid watercolor paint and an eyedropper. Have students drip paint onto a paper towel using their eye droppers. Students may use as many colors as they wish. As they are painting, have students observe how the colors mix together.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00c2\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Once the paper towels are dry, staple them onto a bulletin board to create the quilt. You may want to add a border out of colored masking tape to make each of the squares stand out. Then, you can also take a picture of the class to display in front of their colorful classroom quilt!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
