R and her friend, A, had fun painting with them, but it was a very different experience from the last two times we used paintsicles.
After about five minutes of painting, the frozen paint melted to the point that it fell off the sticks. Then, they used their hands to push the goopy paint around on their paper.
It wasn't long before they had used all of the paint, and they had to quickly wash these messy hands because they heard one of their songs from their dance recital on the radio and, of course, they had to dance!
So, there you have it, we have created paintsicle art in temperatures in the 60s, high 70s - low 80s, and now in the 90s; you can check out my other posts about paintsicles here and here. In my opinion, paintsicles work best in temperatures in the 70s and 80s, but no matter the temperature, they are lots of fun.

It looks like they had a great time. We've never tried making these before. I think we'll have to give them a try.

Very fun! I think we will be making these soon!
That looks like two girls who have been having a blast!
Looks like a good time anyway! We get a lot of 70s and low 80s, so I'll keep that one on our list.
Definitely wouldn't work here now :(
But, I'm thinking of painting with ice later.
You've given them a good test run. Glad to learn from your experiments.
Finger paint! Sort of...
I agree that it looked really neat in the 70s/80s.
Is it as muggy near you as it is up here? We sure aren't enjoying that, even if it isn't too hot!
Still on my to do list!
That's a science experiment by itself - finding an optimal temperature for "paintsicles". Love the painty hands pictures.
