Wax

Make candles with beeswax sheets. You can also do wax resist pictures for art. Let the children draw pictures using wax candles or wax blocks on finger paint or some kind of thick paper. Then, let the children use water paints to paint over their picture. The paint won't adhere to the wax and will make a neat open-ended art project.
