Painting with M&Ms

Do you have leftover M&Ms from Valentine's Day??  Well I had some leftover and even found half a bag from Christmas (thought the boys might like some green).....don't really need to eat any more chocolate, so today we painted with it.  We first did a little sorting and counting and talked about more and less.







Then put your M&Ms in a cup or bowl and add just enough water to cover the M&Ms

And start painting.....the colors aren't real vibrant, but more like a watercolor.




They thought this was pretty cool and they loved that it smelled good too.....they were all saying how it smelled like chocolate!!!  Of course, we had to eat some before we painted as well.

A very easy project that could be used with any color M&Ms and you could also cut shapes out of your paper when done painting as well.
