Simple Lemon Painting Activity For Kids

Directions:

  • Cut the lemon/s in half. 
  • Gently dab the lemon half that you will be using to paint with on a paper towel to remove excess juice. It will be ok to get some juice on the paper when painting – it will dry (and make the paper smell lemony!)
  • Pour paint onto the paper plate. Shake the plate gently to try to even out the paint.

  • Allow painting plenty of time to dry before displaying!
