Paint Chip Pumpkin Patch

10.09.2011

Somehow I always end up with a stash of paint chips- and currently, I have a box full!  An upside of moving and painting, I guess... And this stash came in handy for a fun and quick art project for my son.  Perfect for the fall season!

I had T make a Pumpkin Patch with paint chips, orange paint, and his heel!

I used red, yellow, and green paint chips for the grass and tree... just snip away!

Not sure why I thought to use his heel, but they truly made the perfect pumpkins!

T added googley- eyes, triangle nose, and a smiley face to make his pumpkins complete.

This would be a great fine motor activity for your young ones too; they would have fun cutting the paint chips any way they pleased!  Take away the pumpkins, and you would have the perfect fall tree, too.

I'd love for you to follow along so you never miss out on one of our fun activities we share at School Time Snippets!
