Construction paper water painting

This is a lovely activity to encourage fine and gross motor movement.

As the water is brushed onto the paper, it changes to a darker shade, as if being painted.

The construction paper is very thick so it won’t tear easily when wet.

I used Frog tape to keep the paper in place so it won’t slide around or crumple.
