Musical Paints
Have an assortment of different colors around a table.
Music
give each child a paper plate and one paint brush. When the music begins they start around the table dipping their brushes into the paint onto the paper plate.
They paint as long as the music plays. When it stops, they pick up their pictures and move to the next color.
This continues until the children all been around the table to use every color. No winners; no losers. Every child gets to make a painting, enjoy music and get in a party mood.
