I simply made up some thin paint by adding water to tempera and adding some to liquid watercolors to apply with droppers. Then, I offered a padded tray and white construction paper to drip on.
They loved the break and our room came back to the excited hum of working kindergartners.
As we picked up each drip page, we sang "It's Raining, it's Pouring". At another table, some children even used watercolor paints to try their own drips and one child made a page illustrating the song!
Over the next few days we'll cut large raindrops from the pages, write sound words, and perform some rain songs.
This lesson and many, many more is available in our Spring Weather lesson pack.
Enjoy! Molly
