Spin art

This week's sensory art was dizzying. We handed out plates and wrote our names on the back. I let the kids choose a stencil and they traced them on the center front. Then we handed the supplies back to the front and passed out the scissors. We snipped the plates towards the center all the way around, so that we could fit the plates into the salad spinner and capture the paint for maximum coverage. 

One by one, we put our plates into the salad spinner, spooned a primary color onto the plate, closed the lid, and let it rip! We repeated two more times with the other primary colors. Red, yellow, and blue turned into a full spectrum of color! We had a smaller group than normal, so each kid had a chance to make 2 plates!
