It takes a little coordination to paint with a straw. First you need to use your fine motor skills to transfer liquid watercolor from a paint cup to your paper, then you need to work on your hand-eye coordination to position the straw where you want it, then you have to remember to blow air through the straw, not suck up the paint! Sometimes, the paint is blown completely off the paper, sometimes the straw is abandoned and hands become brushes, and sometimes, the paper itself becomes the brush when it is picked up and tilted this way or that way.
Have you tried painting with a straw?
