It's been a long time…maybe since I was in grade school…since I've done potato printing! I might have done it with bars of soap when I was a Cub Scouts leader or something. Anyway, it's a classic art project every child should try at least once, don't you think? It's a great way to show the printing process and solidify the idea of how images and text transfer backwards onto the page.
We didn't do anything fancy! Just simple shapes in either positive or negative space. And tempura paint for the "ink."
I loved the pretty pictures the children printed with their stamps!
