Art projects can get messy. Real messy. Moms have compiled a laundry list of tips to avoid the huge mess that follows a fun art project with a group of kids.
Making sure that supplies are easy reachable during the project is one idea. Also, keep the tub of water to rinse hand and feet close by. Do not let the kids wander off during the art project.
Choose the art project wisely depending on the age of kids. Ensure that each kid has their own paper plate with paint and make the paint palettes ahead of time.
Get the whole room organized to avoid looking for items during the project. Put the paint and water cup by the kid's dominate hand. If this is not done, the kids will reach over their project and can easily mess up the art work.
