Puffy Paint School Bus Craft for Kids

School is starting up again pretty soon and it’s the perfect time to make this puffy paint school bus craft with your kids! It doesn’t take many materials and if you don’t have the Barbosol shaving cream, it’s a dollar at most stores.

Materials Needed:

1. White shaving cream
2. Elmer’s glue
3. Yellow/black paint
4. Paintbrush
5. Paper

Start by drawing a picture of a bus onto a white piece of paper. I apologize for using pencil, you can hardly see it! Squirt half glue/shaving cream into a cup and add some paint.

Stir up the mixtures until they have “stiff peaks” in it, if not add more shaving cream. I had horrible black paint that looks grey/purple so I used too much (that’s why it looks soupy…but it turned out anyway!)

Have the kids paint inside the bus and add some wheels and windows. Let dry overnight and it’ll be puffy for about a day…I love the texture and so do kids!
