For an interesting background and a (messy) fun project try "Bubble Bubble" by adding bubble bath to a cup of water and then using a straw to (literally) blow bubbles so they overflow onto watercolor paper. Then add drops of food coloring on the bubbles and wait for the bubbles to settle down and bubble patterns to form on the watercolor paper. Repeat with as many bubbles & colors as you desire.

The completed piece is a fun end product or it can be incorporated into another art project. |
