An Activity for Preschoolers:
Use Colorations® No-Drip Foam Paint as a pretend “frosting” for making colorful
cupcakes! Great for imaginary play and developing fine motor skills!
Before You Begin:
Gather Colorations® No-Drip Foam Paint and craft cups.
Activity Goals:
Explore color mixing
Develop fine motor sk ills
Enjoy pretend play time.
Furthermore:
Use materials such as glitter or sequins as “cupcake sprinkles” to add extra sparkle to
these “cupcakes.” Also, don’t throw away the cupcakes. Each one can be used to create a
marbled paint picture!
Steps:
- Separate craft cups.
- Spray a layer of Colorations® No-Drip Foam Paint into craft cups.
- Spray a different color of foam paint into a plastic baggie and seal. Cut off one corner of
the baggie. - Just like real frosting, squeeze the foam paint out of the end of the plastic bag and onto
the cupcake to make a layer of frosting.
