Provide the kids with construction paper in variety of colors, and get out colored tempera school paint. Squeeze a little bit of paint onto their paper, then have them fold it over and rub the paper back and forth . (with younger kids, you might want to pre-fold the papers to make it easier.) When they open the paper up again, the paint will have made a unique design. Add another color of paint in a different area of the paper, and repeat the process until the kids want to leave the design as it is. When done, you will have a variety of bug-like prints. This is a fun activity, and most kids will want to do several different pictures, so be prepared with lots of paper and paint.
