Instructions are so simple! With your white crayon, draw something Christmas related on your cardstock (I drew a simple nativity scene). Can you believe that’s all you had to do?! Yep, now let your child use the watercolors and paint right over the white crayon to reveal the drawing. So exciting!

What is my child learning?
-Creativity + imagination + cognitive skills (as they reveal their sceneries, kids can think, predict and wonder about what it can be)
-Small + fine motor skills (holding on to the paint brush with pointer finger and thumb)
-Concentrated play (having a single activity lined up for the child helps them stay focused and put all their attention towards one activity)
