Smelly Strawberry Watercolors

     Our smelly watercolors were a sensory delight!  I mixed pink liquid watercolor water with strawberry jello to make our medium.  The paint smelled wonderful as the children first discovered.  I drew the children's names with white crayon on their papers to make a hidden message for them to reveal as they painted their picture.  The paint was a unique texture as it was slimy from the gelatin.  This gave the children a different sensation as they painted their hands and face!  Lyla couldn't get enough of painting her face over and over again!  I think she enjoyed the sensory experience and the sweet smell of strawberry!  Even Caleb was drawn in by the sweet smell and enjoyed painting with his friends!  What a yummy day!
