Painting with Candy Canes

Schools were closed again today due to snow, so I thought I'd share a project we did earlier in the week. It doesn't really need an explanation, other than: swap out those paint brushes for some candy canes!

I kept the wrapper on one end so the kids wouldn't get their fingers sticky. And I told them to be gentle with them so they wouldn't break.

Most kids just had fun putting paint on their paper,

but there were a couple kids who painted pictures.

Because I have another day off, I'm going to make even more caramel corn! I will be back tonight to share the delicious recipe with you!

HAPPY WINTER SOLSTICE!
