Step 1: Fill water guns with a mixture of tempera paints and water. I didn't measure anything; just tried to not make it too watery.
Step 2: Cover (or undress) your kids. Or both!
Step 3: Find a spot that can get a little messy without a lot of stress...for us that meant outside!
Step 4: Lay out some ground rules. Best to not skip this step. I did...absentmindedly, and ended up with a very Warhol-inspired right leg.
Step 5: LET THE FUN BEGIN!
Tips:
* For colors from every angle, rotate your canvas/sheet/paper throughout the project. It's much easier to move materials than little bodies yielding guns filled with paint!
* Lay project flat. If upright, the paint will run down the surface.
* Have a pack of wet wipes handy. :)

This is such a fun, fun idea. Maybe next 4th of July we can use red and blue and make patriotic pictures (outside on the lawn of course!) then a trip to the pool to wash the evidence off.
I really, really want to try this! Looks like such fun.
WOW! That is such a neat idea. My kids would adore this!!

Love this idea!! Thanks for sharing it!
What a wonderful idea! I have four boys coming to play with mine this week, and I think this will be the perfect project! I love you blog!
this idea is really fun, very creative. i'll have to try this when my boys get older.
I bought some water guns at Michael's yesterday (cheap!) and we have some little friends coming over tonight. Hoping that the weather is nice enough to give this a go!!!
