Activity Summary:

What You Need:

• Paper
• Thin paint. (This can be water-based paint of any kind. If you use tempera or acrylic, make sure to add lots of water so the paint is very, very thin.)
• Containers for paint
• Tennis balls
• Aprons or old shirts

What You Do:

1. Children should wear an apron or old shirt.
2. Dip the tennis balls in paint.
3. Dab or (our favorite) drop the balls onto the paper to make a print.
4. Hang the prints to dry.
5. Some dripping may occur, which adds interest to the finished work.
