Painting snow

It had snowed the night before.  So I put snow in my sensory bin, and this time instead of scooping and packing material... I added paint.  On one side I had "real" paint, and on the other I added water colors with some water droppers.  I also had (of course) some scooping tools down in the bucket.


The kids enjoyed finding the best ways to pint on the snow.  They found that the water colors made the snow kind of melt when they put it on.  They also found  that they couldn't really paint a picture or make letters with the "real" paint because is was too bumpy.




Some great discussions and experiments were going on at the sensory table today!
