4. “Firework” Salt Painted Art

This is a fantastic sensory craft for kids. The salt creates a 3D texture that mimics the “sparkle” and explosion of a real firework in the night sky.

  • Materials: Black cardstock, white glue, table salt, liquid watercolors.
  • Steps:
    • Draw firework shapes with the glue on the black paper.
    • Cover the glue with salt, shake off the excess, and let it dry.
    • Drip red and blue watercolors onto the salt; watch the color “travel” along the lines.
