I got this idea from a friend of mine a long time ago and today was the perfect day for the activity. (Thanks Ashlee!) I say perfect but I really do question my intelligence sometimes; I just mopped the floor yesterday and now it needs it again. Grrrrrrr.
The boys thought this was fabulous! At first Kade thought it was a chance to eat with their hands so he started scooping it up with his fingers. (Hence the pudding on the tip of his nose.) After a little modeling of correct finger painting techniques he was a master. Neither of my boys like to have messy hands, if it is dirt they're totally fine-- food is another issue. They got over that and had fun; Clint did leave one hand out of the mess. He kept holding it out to make sure it stayed clean-- funny.

I need to try that...
But I think that I have OCD. I hate when my kids hands are dirty, but I know that they would love it!!
They are sooo cute!!
What a great idea! I'm kinda the freak in the house--I need to loosen up and let the kids have some fun like that!
Cool idea...I may have to try that out!
That looks like fun. What a good mom you are!
Side note: If you didn't catch it from the post. . . I wouldn't recommend this as an indoor activity!!!
