Salad Spinner Art

Inspired, again, by something I read.

Required:

  • Paint and a salad spinner. And some paper plates.

  • A boy who loves to spin salad. Or paint. (He just likes the spinner. Sometimes he requests salad for dinner just so he can spin it.)

    Place a paper plate inside the salad spinner, pour a few blobs of paint on, and spin!

    Pretty plates. I think we ended up with 6 or 7.

    And this is what it does to the inside of the salad spinner. We used washable, non-toxic tempera paint, though, and it was actually really easy to clean up. (Ben loves doing dishes too, so it was like part of the fun, even!)
