I know some of you may not believe this but this was all my Mom's idea. I had nothing to do with it nor would I have ever thought this would be an activity we would do at her house! Growing up we did get to finger paint occasionally. My Mom always had left over paint from making backgrounds for roadshows. We didn't get to do this much and I always thought it was so awesome when we did. Looking back, I am surprised that she let us! But it will always be a fun memory I have with her. Now my kids get to do the same.

How fun! You should try letting them finger paint with chocolate pudding on the table, it's fun, they can eat it and it wipes up nicely. :) Love their artwork!
I was looking for these pictures in my camera to post these on my blog! Yes, I am shocked that I went for this. I was actually going to do it with the choc. pudding Meg but I decided I wanted the paint for some reason. They were a little young still to really make fun exotic pictures so next time we will do it at RACHELLE'S HOUSE. I did find tiny drops of paint far away from the bar!! weird huh! I thought I was really being a good grandma Nazi!!! he-he
PS- when I mean exotic it's because the boys didn't or wouldn't use their fingernails or tips of their fingers to make all the fun designs I remember making over and over when I fingerpainted. They just swirled it around and around with their palms. I am sure they loved it but when they are a little older they will know what do better. At this age I guess I should have stuck with the choc. pudding. I think I was worried that it would be more messy because of the fat they could eat it. I don't know I was just trying to loosen up a bit and be more fun.
