    Lightbulb Rain Painting

    http://jas.familyfun.go.com/crafts?p...&craftid=10327

    This activity, from the "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em" department, makes the most of rainy weather.

    WHAT YOU NEED
    • Paper plate (Chinet or other uncoated plate
    • Food coloring
    • White crayon

    Time needed: Under 1 Hour

    Step 1:
    Sprinkle a few drops of food coloring on a paper plate.
    Step 2:
    Get into rain gear and walk outdoors with the plate for about a minute and watch as artistic designs appear.
    Step 3:
    Next, for a batik effect, try drawing a white crayon design on a new plate. Then add some food coloring and head out.

    That sounds like something my granddaughter would love. We will have to try it.
