You Are My Sunshine!

The spring weather is upon us and we could not be happier! So, after a day of playing outside in the warm sunshine, we decided to makes the sun shine inside!
1. Paint a paper plate with yellow paint. We used our fingers to paint because sometimes we just like to get messy;0)
2. Trace and cut out several hands.
3. After your paint is dry, turn the plate over and glue the hands around the outside of the plate.
4. Add a face.
5. now you have a beautiful sun to hang inside! (Don't you just love the cheesy smile!)

  3. Ally,
    Thank you! I use crayola washable paints. The colors are bright and they paint really smoothly. They are also easy to clean up:0)
