Chinese Lanterns

 This week we were busy painting Chinese Lanterns.

 I placed the lanterns over a tube fixed to the table with playdough to make them a bit easier to paint.

 At first J focused on painting the top. Thinking about this afterwards, I wonder it this is because this is the part of the lantern that most closely resembles a sheet of paper, their normal painting suface.

 For others, getting the paint brush in and out of the pot was far more interesting than painting!
