More Summer

And we're back! Heidi had Princess Prep School last week so summer activities were on hold for a week. She had a blast at camp and is now home reciting scriptures about serving others... love it! Anyway... this week we are back to doing our summer activities. Monday's activity was to make homemade finger paints and paint pictures. It was really a very easy recipe and things I had on hand. Here's a link to where I found the recipe: http://d30opm7hsgivgh.cloudfront.net/upload/83641390_g4h4MdyA_c.jpg. The kids watched as I mixed the mixture on the stove, then we put a small amount in ice cube trays, added the food coloring (which was fun mixing colors for the kids to see how to mix colors to make new colors), and finally the fun of finger painting began.



And of course, if you're outside with finger paints it eventually turns into outside water play.

Since Hannah is usually asleep during our summer activities, I took a picture of her cute little nose crinkle. Enjoy!
