Spray Watercolors – Art Playgroup Friday

Our art playgroups have been a little spotty recently, with new babies (two) and preschool starting for everyone. Yesterday though we did liquid watercolors in spray bottles, which I thought was beautiful and interesting with all the colors bleeding and dripping, but no one lasted through more than one painting. I should have put up pages for the moms too, I keep asking Rebecca if she wants to go out on the patio with me and do it again…

Last week we made mud pies. I was really surprised by who got the most involved, the same girl who usually refuses to put her fingers in the paint or shaving cream! I guess it’s all about the substance. Of course at least half of what went on with the mud pies turned out to be dumping dirt into the baby pool and jumping in it. Once that got too cold there was smearing mud all over the patio and pouring water over it and squishing it between your toes. Mmmm, mud.
