NEO Parent Crafting with Kids: Puffy Paint Shamrocks

Bring a little luck to your home with this easy shamrock craft!

Materials:

White shaving cream

White school glue

Green food coloring

Gold/green glitter

Large foam paint brush
or plastic spoon

Small bowl

White cardstock

Pencil

Scissors (optional)

Steps:

Start by drawing a shamrock on your cardstock.

In a small bowl, mix equal parts of shaving cream with white school glue. This will create a sticky frosting consistency.

Next, add your food coloring to get the desired color. Once the mixture dries, it will be a darker shade.

When you have the consistency/color you like – have your child use a paint brush or spoon to fill in the shamrock with the “frosting.”

To finish your clover design, sprinkle some glitter on top of the glue mixture and set aside to dry completely.
