Product Description
A hands-on sun-powered art and science kit that lets kids create nature prints using sunlight, water, and outdoor creativity.
Full Description
The Sunprint Kit transforms sunshine, leaves, flowers, feathers, and found outdoor treasures into beautiful blue-and-white photographic prints using the power of sunlight and water. Equal parts art project and science experiment, this hands-on activity encourages kids to slow down, explore outdoors, and create something memorable from the natural world around them.
Simply place objects on the light-sensitive paper, set it in the sun, and rinse with water to reveal detailed silhouette images inspired by early photographic processes. Kids can experiment with shapes, textures, shadows, and natural materials while learning through creativity and outdoor observation.
Perfect for nature walks, homeschool learning, backyard afternoons, summer camps, and outdoor classrooms, the Sunprint Kit makes science approachable and artistic while encouraging curiosity about sunlight, photography, and the environment.
Creative, screen-free, and endlessly reusable with imagination, this nature-inspired activity helps families spend meaningful time outside together while making art from the world around them.

Why ODSS Recommends It
We love activities that help kids see the outdoors differently. The Sunprint Kit encourages families to slow down, collect natural treasures, experiment with sunlight, and create together outside. It’s made for the moments kids remember — pressing leaves on picnic tables, rinsing prints with the garden hose, finding perfect feathers on the trail, and spending long afternoons creating outdoors.

FOUNDED BY WOMEN. BUILT FOR ADVENTURE.
ODSS was started by mothers who saw firsthand how time outside builds resilient, confident kids. What began as helping outdoor schools equip students for all-weather learning grew into a bigger mission: Help families raise resilient, confident kids by making it easier for children to stay outside longer.
Testimonials
For us, the right gear from ODSS supports what we believe most about childhood. When children are able to be outside every day, in all seasons, they become tenacious, confident, and develop an authentic relationship with the land.

Ordering bulk with Outdoor School Shop was just as easy and seamless as I had hoped! As we open up a new program, preparing our first group of kiddos for any weather was at the top of our priority list, and ODSS came through with insight, expertise, and the coolest, most dependable gear around! Thank you ODSS!
