Easy Pool Noodle Craft Stamps
Supplies Needed:
- Assorted Pool Noodles
- Knife
- Craft Paint
- Scrap paper or Paper Plates
- Paper
Your dollar store will carry a variety of pool noodles in both round forms and floral forms. For just a buck, grab both varieties so your children can make several different shapes.
Directions:
- Begin by cutting your pool noodles into 2-3 inch long sections. A serrated knife is perfect for this task. Cut carefully so your edges are nice and even.
- Place some craft paint onto some scrap paper or a paper plate. Smooth it out into a circle for even and easy dipping.
- Dip the end of the pool noodle into the paint and press firmly. Blot it a few times on scrap paper to smooth the paint out evenly.
- Press the pool noodle to paper and release. The shape of the pool noodle will be present.
Kids will love stamping their pool noodles all over the paper and making one bubble after the other. When you are done you can rinse the pool noodle craft stamps and allow them to dry, as they are perfect for using again and again.
