Fruit and veg painting

Fruit and veg painting

In baby room we have been finding different resources and ways to make marks. This week we explored mark making with several types of fruit and vegetables. The adults gave the babies some mashers and assisted them whilst they crushed strawberries, raspberries, bananas, and peas and dripped in some food colouring to enhance the colour. We gave the babies some paintbrushes and gave them the opportunity to use either the brushes or their hands to make marks during a large-scale painting activity using their edible paints. they all thoroughly enjoyed the experience and also enjoyed being able to taste their resources.
