Need wrapping paper in a hurry? Here’s how to use paper and paints to make your own unique wrapping paper perfect for any occasion!

Age group: 18 months+

What you need:

• Large sheet of coloured paper (white is fine too, coloured just looks more cheerful)
• A large flat box
• marbles
• paint

What to do:

1. Lay the sheet of paper in the box
2. Roll one of the marbles in some watery paint
3. Put the marble onto the paper in the box and gntly tilt the box so that it rolls side to side and leaves trail of paint to make a pattern.
4. Use a new marble in a new colour to add more colourful trails.

* Try flicking paint off a brush onto the paper for a fun splatter effect.
