Black Glue & Watercolor Acorn - Free Coloring Page For Kids

Craft Supplies:

  • Free ACORN Printable {FIND THE FREEBIE ON BOX.COM}
  • White Cardstock Paper
  • Color Printer
  • Colorful Watercolors {any type will do}
  • Small Paint Brushes
  • Small Dish w/water
  • Black Glitter Glue
  • Gold Glitter Glue
  • Large Wiggle Eyes {two per acorn craft}
  • Flat/Wipeable Surface To Work On

Directions:

  • First things first – print out the ACORN TEMPLATE listed above, on white cardstock paper {or any color you like!} Print it as much and many times as you like!
  • Next, if desired, you can cut the acorn template out with scissors before or after you paint them. I opted for not cutting mine out but it’s just another angle you can take this craft 🙂
  • Now it’s time to paint! Let the kids go wide and paint their little hearts out! Remember – you can make this a teachable moment on how to make different shades of BROWN, with the colors they have in front of them!
  • For added flair {and more crafty fun} have children add black glitter glue around the edges and inside the painted acorn design.
  • Finish off by giving your acorns some personality and gluing on wiggle eyes for them to see!
  • Set aside to let it dry when done.
  • Finally – display your hard work proudly!
