-
Shaving cream art is taking off, and we love this homemade puffy paint recipe from realistic mama. The making of this paint is a whole heap of messy fun, and the painting at the end is well worth it.

Sticking with the shaving cream art theme, why not try making some marbled prints, layout some shaving cream in a flat tray or surface, add some paint splotches, marble it and place your paper or card on top. The result is a beautiful marble effect print.
-
Paper weaving is a traditional and fun way to create art with the kiddos. It's not quite as messy as our other suggestions but still fun and a little different.
-
Why not try some cereal box crafts? The guys over at left brain craft brain have a whole post on it with over 30 ideas.
