Instead we hurried them along by getting out a bowl of water to dip them in.  I tried two different kinds of paint popsicles, frozen (washable) tempera paint, and water with food coloring.  MaryAnn Kohl&#8217;s <em>First Art<\/em> suggests liquid water colors, but we don&#8217;t have any.  (Shocking, we seem to have everything else between Rebecca&#8217;s art supplies and mine&#8230;)  The water and food coloring definitely worked better than the tempera paint, the tempera paint was squashy and crunchy and globy, and didn&#8217;t really like being frozen I think.  The water and food coloring melted onto the paper much more gracefully.  I saw the water and food coloring suggestion most recently from <a href=\"http:\/\/chasingcheerios.blogspot.com\">Chasing Cheerios<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/chasingcheerios.blogspot.com\/2009\/06\/painting-with-ice-cubes.html\">Painting with Ice Cubes<\/a> post, I think that was our inspiration anyhow.  Which I&#8217;m needing more and more of!  There will probably be somewhere between 0-3 art playgroups before we have a new baby, and then we&#8217;ll just be having playgroups for a while.  I already can&#8217;t remember what I did this morning, and my writing is deteriorating!  And then comes parent participation preschool at the end of September.
