Paint!

Gavin's rules of painting:
1. Paint will stay on paintbrush.
2. Should paint get on hands/body, it must be washed off immediately.
3. Paint must stay on the paper.
4. A hand print can be made if Mommy promises to wash it off.
5. Colors will not mix.

Carrigan's rules of painting:
1. Colors will mix.
2. Paint will be taste tested.
3. With encouragement, I will spread the paint on my body.
4 Paint must be washed off shortly.
5. Painting does not hold interest.
6. Mommy is disappointed this activity does not fulfill my need to be messy like sitting at the dinner table does.

The wedgie monster was out in full force that day.

Too cute! What kind of paint do you use? Lydia would LOVE painting outside! =)

I bought Crayola Finger paint first, but it's a gel that neither one of the kids cared for much. This paint is Crayola Kids paint, also washable.

I am hoping the more they do it, the more they dive into it.

Gavin and Carrigan are blessed to have a fun adventurous Mommy who encourages fun creative play even when it's messy. Looks like a fun day!

That looks like so much fun! Great idea, Gavin sounds a lot like how Camden might be! Doesn't like to get too dirty! Wish we were closer to have a play date!
