Remember how I just moved??
Well, we just got the Internet up and running!! YAY:)
We have been having so much fun here!! My friend Kylee lives one door down (don't ask me how we got that lucky). She has a little boy named Maddox who is just w few months older than Ty...So they play really well together!
Today we decided to make sidewalk paint...
You can find tutorials all over pinterest for it!!
Its:
1 cup of water
1 cup of cornstarch
food coloring of choice
Mix the water and cornstarch
pour mixture into muffin tin..
then add food coloring
We ended up adding extra cornstarch
(maybe a half cup) so it would
thicken up a little.
I think it worked good!
They seriously had SO much fun!
Ty liked to flick the paint around more than put
it on the sidewalk..
and Maddox made a lovely puddle of to his side!
The boys got to play, Kylee and I got a little sun...
The sidewalk got a makeover....
ps.. when the paint dries it looks just like chalk...
(and washes away like chalk!!!!)
The muffin tin was the best way to go...
The boys were able to get to all the paint well and
it's an easy clean up.
Ty's hair was the best!! splatter marks EVERYWHERE...
plus he dipped his hand in the tin then wiped
his eye....if you notice the blue eyeball!! haha
The boys looked SOOOOOOOOOOO cute in
their diapers.
Did I mention I am so glad its summer
and
the weather is nice enough to do things like this!!
Here is a better shot of the blue eye!!
haha and those hands...
everything washed off in the tub great
except the hands...
they will take another washing before its all off...
But little boys are meant to get messy..RIGHT!!!
Great day!!
with two darling boys:)
Oh how fun!
ReplyDeleteLooks like they had so much fun! :) Gotta love messy, but washable fun!
