First we had to cut the noodle in pieces with a scissor.

Next we got our paints out and squeezed some on the plates.

Kysen wanted to mix one orange(his favorite)!

Then we were already to paint!

He realized after the first circle that you had to push down to get the whole circle to show up.

He had so much fun painting with the pool noodle pieces! As he was painting we talked about the colors and the circle shapes. What shape does it make? What color circle are you painting now? How many orange ones are there?
