Marble Madness in the Sensory Table

So instead of posting more Olympic items I have decided to back track a little bit and post a few older art activities we have done in our classroom. This one was done in the spring when we were talking about magnets and other simple machines such as an incline plane. In this activity the children were able to choose from many different paint colors offered to them each in a cup with a marble. After choosing the color paint they wanted to start with the children took turns rolling the marbles in each cup down the canvas (which was set on a incline).

Here is the finished product!!!!
