Rosie and Jewel thought this activity was "so cool" and loved watching the paint colors mix and blend as they created their icy works of art.
As they played and created they delighted in touching the chilly paint and feeling it melt between their fingertips.
They also loved using these super cool flashlights to make their artwork illuminate.  They played and played, and each piece of art was truly unique and beautiful!
