How Do You Make Finger Paint With Shaving Cream?
Kids love to create, and you can encourage your children’s artistic sensibilities by providing them with the fun, hands-on activity of finger painting. Use shaving cream to make an easy, affordable finger paint for kids to entertain themselves with while you’re busy. Get a can of regular, non-gel-based shaving cream. Dress your child in a painting smock or an old shirt. Lay a piece of foil on the table large enough to act as a painting canvas. Heat the shaving cream by placing it in a bowl of hot water for a few minutes. While heating is not required, letting children finger paint with warm shaving cream can soothe them. Spray a few mounds of shaving cream on the foil. You may also place the shaving cream in small disposable bowls or plates. Sprinkle a few drops of food coloring on top of the shaving cream. Use a different color for each mound and combine colors to come up with new ones. Mix the food coloring and shaving cream. Whip them together with a toothpick or plastic spoon. Warn
