Bubble Wrap Painting

This is a great first printmaking experience (even my two-year old could do it)!

You need:
Bubble wrap
Tape
Box
Paint (we used washable!)
Paintbrush
Paper
1)  Tape a sheet of bubble wrap to the top of a box (if you would like to keep it to use again) or on top of a table.

2)  Paint the bubble wrap.

3)  Place a sheet of paper over the top of the bubble wrap.  Press lightly.

4)  Peel off the bubble wrap print!  If you want to add a second color, allow both the paper and bubble wrap to dry.  Paint the second color on the bubble wrap, press the paper into it, and peel off!

We used it as wrapping paper for Princess's birthday presents!
