When your fridge and walls are already filled with your child’s art, have them paint your switch plates!

1. Your local hardware or home improvement store carries plastic switch plates for every need and they’re quite inexpensive.

2. Provide the students with lots of acrylic paint and a switch plate and maybe some ideas of subject matter. Small motor skills are needed so they should think of detailed images to make the most of their “canvas”. Be sure to have lots of thin paint brushes too so that painting tiny details is possible.

3. After the plate is painted, spray with a sealer to protect from scratching.
