A few nights ago we were attempting to make dinner and the kids were going crazy, I knew it was time for an activity. I didn't want a big mess to have to clean up so I tried something a little different with our finger paints. I took a Ziploc freezer bag, put a piece of card stock inside, squirted a few globs of finger paint into the bag, zipped it shut and gave one to each of the kids. This is pretty the only way we will be finger painting from now on.
The kids were fascinated watching me set up their bags and were so excited when I handed them theirs.
Taylor squished his around with his hands and Scarlett used her fingers to trace around in the paint
When we were finished it was so easy to clean up, no mess and the kids didn't have a spot of paint on them, Yeah!

ReplyDeletethis is great. When I babysit the kids always want to do a fun craft but I hate to get them messy after a shower. This is perfect :)
