At our last DCA messy session we were creating mini towns. Just adding a coat of white paint can turn leftover juice cartons into a great canvas for little ones to express themselves and create interesting houses and villages. And they even already have a little roof and a chimney! You could use gouache or a primer but you don’t need anything fancy, we just used left over house paint and it worked a treat. You can do this the day before and have them dried and ready for a fun art session.<\/p>\n

The surface will take child safe paints easily or you could have a go with pens. Next time I think we might need to try sticking on some collage. Have a big person cut out a little door and your all done and ready to set up your town,\u00a0add in figures and have a play.<\/p>\n

Here is one of our wee ones’ amazing village creation.<\/p>\n
