There is something that makes dipping stamps into  puddles of paint so fun and exciting for children.We made these budget friendly stamps by using our DIY bean bags. These stamps are very easy to make and the paint textures are incredible.

Please make sure that the plastic is tightly wrapped all over the bean bag. We made handles by twisting masking tape around the top.
