<\/p>\n<\/div>\nThe Paper Roll Painted Moon is a great addition to the moon activities<\/a> and paper roll crafts<\/a> on the site.<\/p>\n Paper roll painting is where you apply paint to a piece of paper using a paper roll. You can stamp the paper roll, roll the paper roll and more.<\/p>\n This is a simple moon painting that different ages can do. You use a circle template and paint the moon with paper roll and follow up with stars at the end.<\/p>\n Please take a look at the full details below.<\/p>\n We have included links to some of the products and resources we have used with this activity.

You can see how it looks below.<\/p>\n Then you use masking tape and tape the full moon mat onto the black construction paper. You want to do this so that it does not move while you are painting.<\/p>\n You put the black and white paint on a paper plate. You might want to have more white than black paint.<\/p>\n You can use the paper roll to mix the paint together.<\/p>\n It is okay if the paint is not totally mixed to make grey. The moon has different variations of the colors.<\/p>\n Now that you have the paper all set up and the paint ready, we paint the moon.<\/p>\n You put the paper roll in the paint and stamp it on the paper.<\/p>\n You can see the mixed paint shows up on the black paper. And yes you might see a few bubbles like this while painting.<\/p>\n You have kids have loads of fun just painting the area with the paper roll. they can do a lot of stamping or a little bit of stamping.<\/p>\n Let them decide when they are done.<\/p>\n After they finish painting the moon. You remove the paper template from the black paper.<\/p>\n Be cause if you use construction paper because it might tear a little bit.<\/p>\n You can see how the moon looks below.<\/p>\n The final step is painting the stars around the moon. You can do a few stars or a lot.<\/p>\n You dip the q-tip in paint and put dots around the moon you have painted.<\/p>\n It is fun because no one will have the same start pattern.<\/p>\n Phases of the Moon Fine Motor Mats Printable<\/a> has all 8 phases of the moon with coloring, tracing, and dot marker.
