Waldorf Wet-On-Wet Watercolor Painting

#WatercolorPainting #WetOnWet #Waldorf #HowTo
Many years ago, long before the "Sunday with Sarah" series, I made a two-part video tutorial on Waldorf wet-on-wet watercolor painting. Our video capabilities have come a long way since then, as has KZread's restrictions on video length, so I thought we would revisit the topic for a much-needed update!
In Waldorf schools, watercolor paint is applied to wet, soaked paper. This method creates beautiful blending and teaches children the basic principles of color theory in an organic, hands-on way.
If you try this watercolor method at home, please let me know how it turns out! Share your results with me on Instagram @bellalunatoys
If you need any painting supplies, we carry everything used in the video at Bella Luna Toys: www.bellalunatoys.com/collect...
Wishing you a day full of play,
Sarah Baldwin

    I've watched this video 3x now over the past year as I love seeing your story lesson, it's so soothing and warm. My daughter is 3.5 and we begin our watercoloring next month and I am sure to watch one more time before we start. I really appreciate this tutorial!

    Use Magenta Cyan and middle tone Yellow to creat a less muddy shades and and more harmonious tones! These are human eye primary colors, they’re the key to all of the shades we know. artist grade tubes of Aquarelle (translucent) or Gouache (opaque watercolors) shoud go well. You can also use cubes but I find it really hard for younger children to control.

    Sarah ! I am a big fan of your videos and recommendations ) my wife and I are teaching English in a regular(waldorf inspired )kindergarten to non-natives kids ! We implement as many tips and tricks from the Waldorf pedagogy as possible, but for non native kids many Waldorf verses or songs or finger plays may be pretty difficult. Maybe you could give us a piece of advice or a book that we shall read ?)) In any case, your advice would be appreciated ! And the painting is brilliant , love and piece !

    Hi Sarah, thanks for the updated video...is this the song you sang before starting? There’s a bridge of wondrous light Filled with colors shining bright Red and orange, yellow, green, The fairest colors ever seen, Blue and violet, magic rose; Down from heaven to earth it goes I thought it sounded close as I really couldn't hear the words well in the original video. I found a few other songs online about Tippy sitting by his mushroom and another about ultraviolet marine. What are your favorites to teach young 3-4year olds?
