Safety Guidelines

Always let your child use child-safe scissors.

Steps

	1.	Draw and cut out numbers from construction paper.
	2.	Put tape on several areas at the back of each number.
	3.	Stick the numbers onto sketch paper.
	4.	Prepare different colors of paint on your palette. Do not mix too much water with your paint. We don't want the paint to be runny.
	5.	Paint around each number with outward strokes. You can use one or several colors on each number.
	6.	Young children can use a small roller brush as an easier alternative.
	7.	Once you're finished painting all the numbers, set the picture aside to dry.
	8.	Remove the numbers to reveal the "exploding" number silhouettes you've created!
