It’s starting to get chilly here in Central Virginia (although we have had a few warm days in a row recently), so Big B and I have been talking about winter quite a bit. We have been exploring the changes outside and reading winter themed books. This past weekend while in search of more painting projects that we could do I ran across this recipe from education.com for snow paint. I was so excited to try it out.

Materials:

• White Glue
• Shaving Cream
• Paint Brush
• Paper

To make the paint mix equal parts white glue and shaving cream.

Paint like you would with any other paint and allow to dry.

The paint is smooth, puffy and firm enough to give you nice texture. Even when dry it maintains it’s texture and soft/fluffy feel.

It wasn’t the easiest painting project to photograph but here are two examples of paintings that Big B did with the snow paint
