An Activity for School-Age:
Create an irresistible keepsake for Father's Day!

Before You Begin:
Gather canvases, paint in various colors, brushes and masking tape. Since children will be using multiple paints for their canvases, you'll want to prepare a space in advance with
cleaning supplies on-hand.

Activity Goals:
Create a one-of-a-kind gift for dad using resist art.

Furthermore:
This activity is not only a wonderful gift, but a great introduction to resist art.

Steps:

  1. Firmly place masking tape in the form of the word DAD on the blank canvas.
  2. Paint many colors over the canvas and tape, and then allow the paint to dry.
  3. Once the paint has dried, remove the masking tape to reveal DAD.
