15 Fun Painting Process Art Activities for Kids

I love to paint. I like to try all kinds of different medias. My little girl loves to paint too, so painting process art is perfect. You can just get out the supplies and get started. Most need little prep work.

Painting process can be used in with other different letter themes or seasonal themes. Pair with a book for learning and creative fun.

As much as my little one loves painting, it is usually messy. If you have the same problem, try this bib. It is great for keeping your baby clean while eating and great for your little artist. It worked great when she was a baby and still does when she is almost 4 years old.
