Mix shaving cream and some coloring (if you’d like) and use the bathtub as your canvas!
Materials:
Instructions:
Squirt some shaving cream into each section of a muffin pan. If you’d like colorful paint, add a drop of liquid watercolor to each section and stir to combine. Add some paintbrushes and place the muffin pan directly in the bathtub (without any water). Paint the bathtub walls and yourself- once you’re done painting, wash the shaving cream down the drain!
Tip- If you’re hesitant to try this activity because you’re unsure about the color staining, skip the liquid watercolors and just paint with plain shaving cream. That way, they’ll get to enjoy painting the walls and you won’t have to worry about staining!
