It's hard to trust a toddler when you're trying to cook dinner... So I decided to try something new.
I introduced water painting sans color to my little guy.
All it took was a little water, paper and a brush and I was able to keep him interested for 45 minutes!
The beauty of water painting??? He can eat it, paint on the walls.. And there's no mess to clean up!
While I cooked dinner, I did repeat the following a million times... "Paint on the paper..", "don't eat the brush, paint." And lastly, "not in your mouth, on the paper".
Katie.. I used an old hummus container and cut out a small hole in the center.. Fill with 1/2" water.. Works much better than a bowl!!
ReplyDeleteandrew would totally spill the water!
ReplyDeleteYou must cut a hole though an old container! It helps!!
