Toddler cotton wool painting

Why not share this post!

cotton wool paintingThis activity is a different twist on painting. By using pegs and cotton wool you create a different effect. For this toddler activity I have already put the cotton wool onto the pegs to make it easier, but you can adapt this into a fine motor activity by giving your toddler a peg and having them pick up each cotton wool ball themselves.

What you need

  • Pegs
  • Cotton Wool
  • Poster Paint
  • Plate or bowls for the paints
  • Paper

  3. Let your toddler paint!
