O and I started working on our Valentine's tonight. I cut out lots of hearts out of computer paper and taped them to the bathtub wall. O painted them with red, pink, and white paint. She actually had much more fun painting herself and the tub, and she needed lots of prompting to actually paint the hearts. Tomorrow we'll glue the hearts to construction paper to make cards. This was LOTS of fun, and we'll definitely be painting in the bathtub for a while (maybe years because this girl is MESSY!)Monday, February 11, 2008

What a wonderful idea! Clean up is a breeze and your little one had an amazing sensorial experience. The Valentines are pretty sweet also.

ReplyDeleteI'm not sure...it's been a while, but I think it was washable tempera paint.
