Isn’t this corn painting from Fun for Kids such a neat idea? Use uncooked corn on the cob pieces and roll them into the paint and then onto your paper.

The kids could stay busy making place mats, coasters, or even a table runner while you prepare for Thanksgiving.

That's so cool! I had a piece of corn in little man's sensory bin and he wanted to eat it. I had to explain to him that this was for play. I guess I could explain the same thing to him if we paint with it. He'd love that!

What a GREAT idea :) I love that it doesn't necessarily have to get on their hands!

You could achieve a similar effect with bubble wrap, wrapped around a rolling pin. :)

I love this idea! I tried to do it with JDaniel, but couldn't find the cobs to paint with.
