    Rainbow Art – Process-based!    
    What is process-based art? It is an art activity that does not have an “end” product in mind but rather focuses on allowing the child to explore freely – usually in a fun and engaging way. Process-based art activities help develop children’s creative expression and self-awareness while also supporting motor development.  
    1. You’ll need a lightweight wide shallow container like an aluminum roasting pan, cardboard box, or plastic tub. It should be large enough to hold a sheet of paper and light enough for your child to move it around.   
    1. Gather a few large marbles or similarly shaped balls.     
    1. Place the paper in the bottom of your container. Ask your child to place a few dollops of paint on the paper. Let them choose the colors.  
    1. Place the marbles in the container and ask your child to tip it back and forth. As they tip the container, the marbles will roll around and spread the paint.  
    1. Experiment with different colors, other types of balls, and different ways of moving the container. Ask your child how their artwork changes as they change these different factors.
