Supplies for Flower Fizzy Painting

Baking Soda
Flower template
White Distilled Vinegar
Scissors
Tissue paper
Cricut (optional)
Glue
Pencil
White cardstock
Food Gel Coloring
Paintbrushes
Plastic Mini Cups
Jumbo eyedroppers

Directions

First, you need to download, print and cut out the flower template on white cardstock. Place the flower on a tray, plastic tablecloth or old newspaper.
Next, create a baking soda paint by mixing 2 tbsp of baking soda with 5 drops of food coloring. Mix to form a wet paste. You can add a few drops of water to get the right consistency.
Let the messy fun begin! Paint your flower using the paste.
Add vinegar to the jumbo dropper then squirt the flower to create a cool chemical reaction. Set aside to dry.
Let your child use safety scissors to cut the tissue paper into small pieces. This will be used for the center of the flower. I suggest using one color but leave this decision to your child. If they are not ready for scissors, let them tear pieces of tissue paper for this craft.
Crumple the tissue paper into small balls then set aside.
Finally, once the flower is dry, use a pencil to draw a small circle in the center. Then glue the crumpled tissue paper inside of the circle.
