Materials for coloring and crafting:

• printer
• white paper or card stock
• coloring tools
• scissors
• glue stick
• watermelon

Activity > Coloring with Watermelon Juice - Sensory Experience

Print this watermelon coloring page. Cut watermelon slices. Reserve a few watermelon pieces and allow child to use a few pieces to color the pulp areas in the coloring page with the juice (alternative: use watermelon diluted gelatin or similar product). Yes, it is messy, but very effective, the child is using many of the senses (sight, smell, touch and hearing during this process). Use green markers and other colors to finish the picture. Save some seeds to glue in the pulp area of the picture. Activity > Willy the Watermelon Craft @ dltk-teach.com This is a fun printable craft in color or coloring format.
