In our home we opt for a mess free alternative that allows Little A to explore her creativity and this mummy to save her sanity in a rental property.
For us we use WATER. Plain, simple, straight from the tap, water.
Doing this can keep Little A and Miss L busy for hours, creating and recreating as the water dries.
You can use a range of things to create these works of art and with no mess or damage to things; there is no worry or stress of cleaning up after your kids.
If they are outside you tip the water out in the garden and leave their brushes etc to dry. If indoors, wipe with a towel and you are done.
So simple so easy and so much fun for the kiddies!
When we feel like getting creative with colour at bath time, we will use Daddy's left over shaving cream, add a couple drops of food colouring and paint our tiles. (NB please be careful: the food colouring may stain some tiles or grout.) Doing this is a super easy cleanup and lots of fun for all, with the odd cream beard here and there. If you don't have shaving cream around, you can always make a delightful bubble foam from dish soap, essential oils and water (and food colouring) mixed in a blender to get a very similar effect.
This month we are giving away a Grimm's Wooden Heart Rattle. All you have to do is share how your baby plays with paint, for all the fine print click here.
