Mal loooooves to draw and color, so what better way to encourage her artistic talents then to fingerpaint. I was prepared! I decided the kitchen would be the safest place since the floor in linoleum, got a stack of old newspapers from Gummy and Pop Pop to cover the floor and control the mess, dressed Mal in an old shirt that was already stained, and got some tiny plates to squeeze limited amounts of the paint onto.
She had the best time! Though after she painted a few pages of paper, she decided that the paint was lotion and decided to run the paint all over her legs and Mommy's arms.
Next idea - to make some homemade play dough, so in case she eats it, it won't hurt her. Ok Gummy, waiting on the recipe from you!
