Citrus Stamps

Here’s one final craft to squeeeeze into the school holidays! 🍊🍋
When citrus is in season & we have excess lemons, limes & oranges filling our kitchen bench! Here’s a simple way to use those zested or not-quite-right fruits so nothing goes to waste.

Ages: 3+

You will need:
⋒ Citrus fruits - lemons, limes &/or oranges.
⋒ Acrylic paints
⋒ Paper plates
⋒ Paper

1. (Adults) cut your fruits in halves and quarters & blot out as much juice as you can on some paper towel.
2. Blob your paint colours onto a flat surface, such as paper plates.
3. Dip your fruit in the paint & stamp away!

Try cutting the same fruit different ways to create different stamp patterns. You could carefully pull the orange segments out for a snack & use the remaining orange as your stamper!

Have fun!
