Sponge Painted Pumpkins

We had fun doing some sponge painting - something we probably do not do enough of, which is crazy since it really requires very little... paint, sponge and paper! I drew a pumpkin in black marker and then set up both (yes, BOTH) kids with a plate of orange and brown paint with a sponge. Holly took her time with the actual sponge technique whereas Hudson soon found he could smear it. When they dried we cut them out. They both turned out great and I have to say it was wonderful to do an art project with both kids and no restrictions!!!
