What You'll Do
1) Pour about 1/2 cup of white paint per painter into a cup or bowl.
2) Add flour until you the you have the consistency of thick pancake batter. Set aside.
3) Use the chalk, or pencil, to trace the bottom of your cup or mug (round Tupperware works too) onto the black paper.
4) Place star sticker in the space outside of the circle. This becomes your sky.
5) Paint the white paint into the inside of the circle. Don't be afraid to glob it on thick to resemble the bumpy surface of the moon.
6) Use the bottle cap to make craters in the moon.
7) Let dry and enjoy your moon painting!
