    This Art Material is a Must-Have!

    Dot Marker Flower Painting- Easy art activity for children

    Dot paint markers are one of our favorite art supplies at home. Our favorite brand is Dot-A-Dot markers. They are great for little hands to grip on, easy to use and mess free, totally perfect for young toddlers. And you will be pleased to know that older kids love them too. My 6-year-old kindergartener still loves to make art with these markers. 

    I’ll let you in on a secret here. I am obsessed with these dot markers too! They are so useful to create the quickest and easiest learning activities. Here are some of my favorite ideas:

    • Cut the flowers out to create the flower stencils.
    • Set out dot paint markers, paper and the flower stencils. If you do not have dot paint markers, attach a pompom to a clothespin. And use the pompom clothespin to dap paint on the stencils.

    • Secure the flower stencils on the paper with washi tape. I love to use washi tape for this purpose as they can be removed easily without tearing the paper.
    • Now invite your children to dot away and create beautiful flower painting!
