This Valentines Day project is beautiful AND preschool-friendly.
Kids will love revealing their secret patterns when they paint over the white crayons.
Now its time to try a wax resist technique!
Use white or light colored crayons to make patterns, phrases, or draw hearts.
For a great result, draw over the pattern several times so your painting has some nice contrast.
Its time to paint!
Set up the watercolor paints and a cup of water.
Paint over the crayon drawing and watch the magic of wax resist.
