It has been pretty cold the last couple of days here in Reno. Too cold to go to the park. Blake has been steadily getting more bored each day, so I decided to take entertainment into our own hands, literally. I let Blake sit down and finger paint yesterday morning. He loved it!
Blake is a one finger painter, he does not enjoy using his whole hand. He also favored the color blue and green, I seriously could not get him to use the red. Funny.
This is where Blake figured out that not only could he finger paint on the paper but on himself. He also found that painting on himself is way more fun than on paper.
Another fact Blake found out was that finger paint doesn't taste as good as it looks. A good lesson to learn early. See how happy he is. I love it. This will be a regular activity in our house it looks like. Mostly because I love watching him paint. It's so much fun watching these things through your child's eyes. Priceless.
This is Blake's finished project. I don't see an up and coming Picasso, but at least he had fun. As did I.

How fun!!! Blake looks so cute finger painting. A great book for fun ideas of things to do with Toddlers is The Toddler's Busy Book. I got it for Christmas and I love it and Landon really likes the activities that we have done.
