Midweek Creations - Recycled Paintbrushes

One way to make an ordinary activity like painting into a memorable moment of discovery is to reinvent the paintbrush. Children love dipping ends of cardboard tubes into paint and making circles or circles inside of squares with yogurt containers. Get creative one day and have your child look through your recyclables to find new things to paint with and begin a conversation about recycling. It's a great way to get your child's imagination going and create some neat art as well.
