This is our last paint week activity. It has been a fun week. We will still do painting projects in the future, and maybe even another paint week, but for now here is our grand finale! I saw this post for Bubble Bath Paint just a couple days ago on Just Another Day in Paradise, and I knew we had to fit it in this week. Sweet Girl loves playing in the tub. It is probably her ...
Here is another addition to our week of painting while trying not to get any paint on our hands. This activity is very similar to the q-tip activity. I just gave Sweet Girl some paint and a couple large pom poms. She loves pom poms, so she was very excited about getting to play with them and dip them in paint! I didn't get a picture of her finished painting, but ...
Paint week continued Wednesday with Q-Tip Painting. This one was really fun! I squeezed some paint into cupcake liners and gave Sweet Girl some q-tips to paint with. She started out just making dots on her paper, then she realized she could drag the q-tip and make lines. We talked about green and blue and dots and lines. Whenever she got a little bit of ...
I have seen so many posts on blogs about kids painting with shaving cream, and since this week is all about painting, I thought it would be fun. But as you can probably guess from the title it was not fun. I'm not sure if I have ever said this before, but Sweet Girl hates having stuff on her hands. She hates finger paint, on her birthday she got upset when she got cake all ...
This week for Mommy and Me School, Sweet Girl and I are exploring painting. We started with toilet paper roll painting. I just squeezed some finger paint into a container and gave her an old toilet paper roll, and she got right to work. I think her favorite part was when a bubble would form on the bottom of the toilet paper roll as she lifted it out of the paint. ...
I love finger painting. What is more fun than squishing paint between your fingers? I'm not quite ready for Sweet Girl to get paint all over her fingers because then it would be all over everything. So instead it went inside a gallon size bag. I taped the top part closed and to the floor, because the last time we did this she managed to get the bag open and her fingers ...
In my mind Mommy and Me School should be simple and inexpensive. This activity definitely meets those requirements. All you need is a bowl of water, a paintbrush (I found mine in a pack at the dollar store), and sidewalk (I found mine outside of my house.) Sweet Girl loves to play with water, so I was pretty certain this was going to be a big hit. I originally found this ...
I am the mother of two amazing kids and I am married to an incredibly sweet and smokin' hot guy. I taught elementary school and preschool before leaving to become a stay at home mom. Now I'm embarking on the adventure of a lifetime and learning how to be a mom.
