We collectively despise the Corona Virus. But, these cute germs are totally welcome around our house anytime! And they are a great addition to our Corona Chronicles!

We made these adorable Germ Paintings using inexpensive watercolor paints, white paper and paper straws.

Once you’ve brushed your watercolor on your page in a blob (make sure it’s really wet) blow it around with your straw.

Let dry completely (only takes 10-15 minutes) and then add the eyes. Some of my kiddos drew them straight on the painting with black marker, while others drew the eyes on white printer paper using the black marker, cut them out and glued them onto the painting with a glue stick. You could even use googly eyes if you have them!

No matter how you add the eyes, you simply cannot mess these guys up. They’re supposed to be wild and crazy. That’s what makes ’em so fun!
