Fingerpainting

I'm lucky to be a stay-at-home mommy. I know others aren't as fortunate and I also know that being a SAHM isn't cut out for everyone.

But one of my favorite things is to experience new things and play with my daughter. Nothing warms my heart more.

So a few weeks ago when I noticed Melissa & Doug fingerpaints for like $5, I picked them up and thought what an awesome idea for when Little Miss B is a little older.

But did you know fingerpainting is GREAT for toddlers and their developmental skills? 

So who cares if the little one gets a little dirty! ;)

So I stripped down little Miss B and let her go to town. And boy, did she absolutely LOVE it.  She's constantly asking to paint. 

It doesn't have to be anything fancy or structured. Just good ol' easy play with the little one. Let them drive right in and make sure you get washable paint, so when you're done, you just wash then down and you're good to go.

A fun, easy way to spend a good hour or two in the late afternoon :)
