Squirt Gun Watercoloring

My boys are OBSESSED with anything that has to do with guns. Sound familiar? This activity turns target practice into a craft! Check out how we did it!

You will need:

• Squirt Guns

• Acrylic Paint

• Watercolor Paper

• Tape

Instructions:

1. Choose an acrylic paint color.

2. Mix a couple squirts of paint color with some water.

3. Pour the paint/water mixture into your squirt gun.

4. Tape up your watercolor paper somewhere outside.

5. Let your kids squirt the paint water onto the paper.

6. Leave the paper out to dry!

Activity Notes:

• After doing this activity, I wish I would've done a more concentrated and darker color. Add more paint to the water mixture than you think!

• We ended up taping ours up on our back fence and it worked really well for us!

• If your kids are a little older, try drawing a target and see if they can hit it! Make them stand further away to make it more difficult.
