It brings in both the creative and a sensory stimulation that is not always there in a painting craft. In addition, the finished pieces have a 3D-effect to them and it looks amazing under the glass of a frame. My personal favorite is to use blue, white and silver, since the children often create pictures that resemble beautiful ocean scenes.]]> http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/2009/07/painting-with-sand-a-fun-kids-crafts-activity/feed/ 0
