-present the material to your toddler

-ask your toddler to place the card inside the salad spinner and pour some paints on it

-spin the salad spinner and let your toddler explore freely

She had a great time to spoon some paints and pour them on the card.

When it was rather too slow by using a spoon she enjoyed tipping those jar lid paint containers over the card to let them drip. She was ecstatic to push the handle to get salad spinner spinning. “Push, push, push,” she said.

She asked “help me, help me,” to spin it even faster. Even better, the painting results is like magic. It blop dollop of paints at one time and suddenly become artsy like this after. No matter how many times she did this, she always so excited to open the spinner’s lid.

A “wow” always shouted by her mouth every time she saw her painting creation.

She has been playing with salad spinner a few time this month, however today she was rather curious to see what happen underneath the basket. The blue pattern which she left behind is so lovely. She dipped her finger in the left over blue paint, scrape and paste it on the card.

She spinned the card a few times and eventually get her result. She loves spinning so much that she kept closing, opening and spinning the card over and over.
