Puffy Paint, aka Shaving Cream Paint, Fluffy Paint, Cloud Paint, Snow Paint, etc., is a fun twist on traditional painting. It’s so simple to make and LOTS of fun. I love it because it can be used on projects that are all white – polar bears, clouds, snowmen, and today ~ a ghost! So here’s […]

August 29, 2012 by Kimberly 8 Comments

I recently got it in my head to make some homemade paint with Lorelai. So I googled and googled and finally came across this one. It appealed to me immediately because of the short ingredient list, basic supplies that I definitely have on hand, and the simple instructions. Score! Lorelai was cautiously excited about making […]

Glow Painting Activity

July 24, 2012 by Kimberly 4 Comments

I saw a post on Pinterest about glow-in-the-dark bubbles. Supposedly, if you break a glow stick into a container of bubbles, the bubbles that are blown will glow. This did not work for us. I don’t know if our bubbles were too cheap or if they were the wrong kind and didn’t mesh well with […]

Sidewalk paint was another activity that I had on my list for things to do with Lorelai while on ‘vacation’. So this morning, when we didn’t have anything to do, I took her outside and we got to it. It was very easy and she had a lot of fun doing it – which is […]

Scratch-N-Sniff Watercolor Paint

February 21, 2012 by Kimberly 8 Comments

Today is all about the sense of SMELL! Lorelai did 3 fun craft activities this morning, and this is one of them. I saw an article on E-How about making watercolors with Koolaid packets. I thought it was pretty much genius and when M (my husband) went out last night to run some errands, I […]
