Because the paper gets pretty wet with paint it is hard to remove without tearing it off, however because the emphasis of the project is on process not product, my kids didn’t mind that we weren’t able to keep the final product.

In this instance you will probably not be able to preserve the paper as you will need to remove it immediately in order to wash your bike.

If you did the project in the horizontal position and squirted the paint, most likely your paper will be super saturated and your bike will also be splattered with paint.

If you did the vertical version of this project you can let the paper dry on the bike, then remove it later.

If you are positioning the bike upright, dip brushes in paint and apply to spinning bike tire.

Step Five: Spin and paint! Have fun squirting the paint onto the tire as it spins.

We positioned the pedals so that the bike was fairly stable. Make sure if you place the bike on its side that it doesn’t easily tip over. You can either do this project with the tire positioned vertically or horizontally. Tape the open ends of the slits together securely using clear tape so they don’t peel up when painting.

Step Three Tape the paper to the bike tire with duct tape.

After that cut out the center and the slit to allow the paper to wrap around the tire. We folded a large square of butcher paper in half, then traced a large platter to form the basic circle shape.

Step Two Cut the butcher paper to fit your bike tire.

Alternatively take this project out on a lawn or other washable area.

Step One Prep your space! Roll out large a large sheet of butcher paper to protect your work area.

White Butcher Paper This is the type we use but you can also use brown kraft paper available at the hardware store.

Warning: This project is MESSY!!!!!! Don’t let that deter you though, prep your space to manage the mess and then forget about it.

Process Art and in turn, Action Art do just this, so I say bring on the mess!!!!! What they learned from such directed art projects is to follow explicit instructions and look to an adult for approval, and those are not the values I believe children should take away from art.Īrt experiences for young children should place the emphasis on exploration and excitement, not a finished product. It’s important for children to learn to value creativity first and foremost without a thought as to whether or not their work ”looks good.” When I was a co-op preschool mom I sometimes watched parents direct their kids during art making and it was heartbreaking. I’m a huge believer in process art for kids especially at a young age. In fact no emphasis should be made on a final product, but rather on enjoying the process of creating.
