STEP 2. Squeeze a good size blob of orange paint into the plastic bag. Then release all the air from the bag and seal.

STEP 3. Choose whether to tape the plastic bag to the table OR to the cardstock. If you are taping the plastic bag to the table, tape the cardstock over the plastic bag.

STEP 4. Now time for squishy mess-free fun! Get your kiddos to move the paint around the bag with their fingers to fill the open space in the cardstock.
