Temperatures have been warming up the past couple of days, so we decided to go outside a play with water. My daughter's teacher in her mommy and me class always has a fresh bucket of water and paintbrushes for the kids to play with, and so I bought some supplies for us to play with at home. This will be an activity we'll definitely be repeating into the summer!
Supplies:
-Bucket
-Paint Roller Tray
-Paint brushes (different sizes)
-Roller brushes
Directions:
First fill some buckets up with water.
Then dip your paint brush or paint rollers into the water.
And start painting away!
Drawing with a paintbrush can be fun...
But the paint rollers were even a bigger hit with the kids.
Time to refill our buckets with water!
Painting away...
My daughter was happily painting the concrete...
but then she had a bright idea.....she decided it would be fun to paint mommy! I captured her sneaky little smile as she was running up to me with her paint brush.
This is such a great idea . I will be doing it with my nephew :0)
ReplyDeleteWow, amazing how entertaining water can be! I bet Evan would really get into this.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun way to spend a hot afternoon, and the best part is there is no clean-up! Great idea.
ReplyDeleteWow, why didn't I think of this! This is painfully simple, lol ;) Thanks for sharing - I found you over at the Saturday Show and Tell link up!

We love painting with water too but we've never tried the paint rollers before. This looks like so much fun. I've featured it as one of my favourites from last weeks Kid's Co-op link up. THanks for linking up!
ReplyDeleteThis is a good idea! I love the pictures, they look so busy and the last picture with the sneaky smile is great.
