It has been raining here in New England, yup, good times. Last year was the same deal, oh lawdie what to do? Bust out the crafty items to keep the lil ones busy!
Rain + Rain + Cranky Kids with too much energy = Fingerpainting, in the house, in the kitchen!
We actually have tried fingerpainting before, but it didn't go over too well he kind of freaked out about it feeling all slimy on his hands, but I figured why not try it again? Big hit I tell ya, big hit!
Such a big hit it became a bit of a whole-body experience.
I just let him go to town, and his little footprints did actually come off of the floor.
looks like fun. We did stamping today. The washable ink wasn't washable and now Z has blue and pink hands! Oh well :)

I have a whole list of summer time activities - all of the indoor ones involve money and lots of it. I may break down and allow the previously banned Moon Sand back in the house.
Chris looks gorgeous.

You're better than me. I've yet to try finger painting...

We do naked painting in the kitchen - on old blueprints of my husband's. The girls love it. With watercolours they and the floor wash off easily.

Naked-time is actually becoming a thing around here, the little one really likes it and the older one completely eggs him on, it's funny
