Painting with Vegetables

I found some vegetables that were a little beyond their "usable" state, so we created an activity with them. 

We used a radish, parsnip, brussel sprouts, and celery. I gave each of the kids their own plates with paint and they dipped and painted as they saw fit. They even peeled off some of the layers of the brussel sprouts and painted with those. We used a rubber band to tie the celery together to make flower-like patterns.
