Have Their Cake and Paint It Too!

Help me give my students new tempera cake paint trays that will last!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. White's classroom raised $276

My Project

The artists love to paint and add color to everything we do. These tempera cake paint pallets would be a new material that would bring excitement to the lessons. They would last much longer than a watercolor pallet and be a breeze to clean up, in turn giving students more creative work time.

Painting is not only fun but can be therapeutic.

The cakes would be used throughout the year on a variety of projects. They will help provide experiences some students want and some students need. I am always amazed at how painting calms the classroom.
