July's Arts, Crafts, and Pinterest Fun!

 I saw this idea on Pinterest to simply use painters tape to spell out a child's name and then let them paint around it.
 I did all the prepping while Olivia was down for a nap.
 She had fun trying different types of paint.
 She really liked mixing the colors together to make new colors!
 This is probably the BEST Pinterest idea I've discovered yet for toddler play! Simply buy some pipe cleaners from the Dollar Store...give them a colander... and have them stick the pipe cleaners in the holes!
 Voila! Instant fun and guaranteed to entertain them for 30 minutes! And HEY!..Let's face it.. that's time for a mommy to start laundry, shower, start lunch, the things we can power through with 30 minutes!!!
 Watercolor painting day!
Olivia really enjoyed being able to wash her own paintbrush and see the water change colors with the paint.
