Don't forget to ENTER the FLIRT EARRING GIVEAWAY!!!
Last Day!
I had some bored kids recently pacing back and forth, ranting and raving, and altogether being rather unpleasant.
I think we have grown weary of winter...and by think I mean know.
We were actually seeing some of the grass and then it snowed. Oh grass, it was nice to see you for awhile.
So our recent answer to being stir crazy was some painting fun.
What made it so fun you ask?
Uh first...Kool-Aid.
Second...GLUE.
Combine one Kool-Aid packet and a bottle of glue and you have sticky, colorful, wonderful smelling paint.
Then after some stirring and lid replacing, it turns into the one of the most fun painting mediums ever.
Plus it also is an excellent answer to the stir-crazies.
Just roll up the sleeves, put on T-shirt Painters Smock, and start squeezing the Kool-Aid glue all over a giant piece of poster board.
Sometimes it takes so much concentration, one's tongue involuntarily must stick out.
This was a great activity for a stuck-in-the-house afternoon.
I will say that while all the boys enjoyed it, my almost four year old enjoyed it the most. He started first and ended last. Then he went back later...gasp ... smock-less and ended up covered in Kool-Aid glue paint.
I couldn't be mad, he was having fun, being creative, and had this look on his face.
Kool-Aid Painting passed the test. Good fun had by all.
