First up, we made these adorable paper plate watermelons. I found the bright pink and green paint at Wal-Mart. We added the black buttons with Elmer’s glue. Then, we wrote about eating watermelon.
This second craft was Pinspired. You can find the originaal pin HERE. We made this adorable watermelon with shaving cream, Elmer’s Glue, and the same paint from above. I dis not measure out the puffy paint, but I would say it is about 2/3 shaving cream and 1/3 glue. Then I added a few squirts if paint until I got the color I wanted. If the paint does not look puffy enough, simply add more shaving cream.We stuck felt seeds on before it dried. Then, we wrote our math number problems. Felt is cheaper then buttons, but I think I like the look of the buttons better.
