I marked off a peace sign on the back of a paper plate, and let Clara have a go at it with the paints!!

There’s really no wrong way to do this project. She needed very little encouragement from me to cover the plate with paint… so much fun!!

Clara painted several of these, and each one is unique and colorful!

Once the paint is completely dry, peel off the masking tape to reveal the peace sign and outline with black marker. Proudly display in your home or classroom!!

Have fun!!
