How To
Start by getting your supplies ready and downloading the free mad scientist printable. Get your little one to draw straight lines in each section of the printable using a fine tip black marker.
If your toddler isn’t old enough to do this himself, you can help him out.
Ask him to fill up each section of the image, except for the scientist’s eyes and his coat.
It’s time to add some color and life into it folks! Get the crayons and color pencils out and ask your little one to fill it up with the right colors (or rather any colors he prefers). The basic idea is to let him explore his creative side and do whatever he wants to- rather than stick to particular constraints.
It is best to avoid using watercolor and paints for this project, since using those will get the ink from the marker to smear and ruin the sheet.
And that’s it! This easy art project is perfect for those lazy afternoons where you want to keep your kid busy but doesn’t want to spend a whole lot of time setting things up.
Tips & Tricks
Plus, since you’re already on the subject of a mad scientist, you can also take his learning experience up a notch and try some fun and easy science activities with him at home, or get your hands on some good science themed books which could help get his interested piqued.
And of course, you could also introduce him to Frankenstein and get him in the spirit of Halloween.
And if your little one loved this line art project in particular, you could also get him to try some similar Halloween themed line art projects- I’ve got lots of options for you to pick from and get started with!
