Painting with Strawberry Baskets

It's that time of year~Strawberries are in season!  My kids LOVE strawberries...well all fruit actually.  They love going to the fruit stands and Farmer Market to look at everything.  The best part of going there is that the berries come in the cute green baskets.  I really don't like throwing them away...they just look fun!  So I decided to let the kids paint with them.  

It's really easy...Paint in a tray, dip the baskets and paint!  I like how the final product looks.  Plus it's a good way to learn squares and color mixing :)
