You have the background and then painting the duck. You can make this as simple or complicated as you want. You can see what we did and some suggestions for changes for different ages as well.<\/p>\n<h3>Step One: Painted the Background<\/h3>\n<p>You can use watercolors for the background. You paint the pond. You start with the pond water since it can be the biggest part of the painting. We use big brushes on the watercolor paper to make the painting go faster.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/blog\/5-2021\/duck-cookie-cutter-painting2.jpg\" alt=\"Duck Pond Painting with Cookie Cutters - easy watercolor and painting project for kids with cookie cutters - simple and easy to do! - 3Dinosaurs.com\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Then you paint the area around the pond. It can be all green bushes and cattails or just green with some sky. This is a flexible pond painting which makes it fun to paint.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/blog\/5-2021\/duck-cookie-cutter-painting3.jpg\" alt=\"Duck Pond Painting with Cookie Cutters - easy watercolor and painting project for kids with cookie cutters - simple and easy to do! - 3Dinosaurs.com\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>For younger kids, you could have them use construction paper for the water and land.<\/p>\n<h3>Step Two: Paint the Duck<\/h3>\n<p>You place the duck cookie cutter where you want it on the pond. You want to make sure you are holding the duck cookie cutter firmly with your fingers.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/blog\/5-2021\/duck-cookie-cutter-painting4.jpg\" alt=\"Duck Pond Painting with Cookie Cutters - easy watercolor and painting project for kids with cookie cutters - simple and easy to do! - 3Dinosaurs.com\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>You then use a q-tip with yellow paint to paint inside the duck cookie cutter. You can use orange for the duck beak. <\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/blog\/5-2021\/duck-cookie-cutter-painting5.jpg\" alt=\"Duck Pond Painting with Cookie Cutters - easy watercolor and painting project for kids with cookie cutters - simple and easy to do! - 3Dinosaurs.com\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>After you lift off the duck cookie cutter you can see how fun the duck looks on the pond.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/blog\/5-2021\/duck-cookie-cutter-painting6.jpg\" alt=\"Duck Pond Painting with Cookie Cutters - easy watercolor and painting project for kids with cookie cutters - simple and easy to do! - 3Dinosaurs.com\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Then you use black paint to make the duck&#8217;s eye.
