I am a mom of 4 kids(11,10,8 and 6)who taught preschool for 2 years.
I hope you can use this blog as a resource to find fun activities to do with your children. Some ideas are new, while others have been around a while. This is a place where I can store all our activities without having to actually have to store them in my attic. I hope you find some fun and easy ideas.
PhotoHunt This is my idea of "Messy". Play-Doh. It is evil stuff that gets all over the floor, and good heavens DO NOT get in it in the carpet. But yet, I still buy my kids a big pack of it every Christmas. Here is my MESSY FACED PRINCESS. She got into my bronzing powder. I hope it looks better on me.
I totally agree that play-doh is evil. I think every mom has spent too much time kneeling on the carpet, pulling dried play-doh bits out of it. The girls have a big storage tub full of play-doh, but I haven't let them play with it in a while. I think I'll buy a tablecloth to lay out first. For the other pic, I think it's so cute when kids get into makeup and try to do it themselves. I have a pic of Olive at 2 with half her face covered in red lipstick...it's great!
Put more colors on her face and she can play clown. When I was little I like to put colors on my cheeks and lips too. A little mess that can be washed off is OK.
I remember having play-doh as a kid! My LEAST FAVORITE thing about it was the way it smelled. To this day, I can't stand the smell of play-doh. I agree with you; it's a horrible mess when it gets squished into the carpet. :) .-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- My photo hunts include road construction, a bad restaurant, and a driveway full of snow.
That is the funniest thing the bronze powder......i did however buy some play dough for my 2 year old for craft time after the first of the year...I though he could play with it and cookie cutters.....her face is so cute.
I am the exact same with the Play Doh. I hate it with a vengeance, but somehow I forget and buy it anyway. UGH! I have restricted my little princess to the kitchen table (with tile floors) when she plays. Then of course, the dogs want to eat the yummy looking stuff...
oh, I HATE PLAY DOH! I especially hate the way it smells. I literally get ill from it, so I wonder if I don't have some sort of allergy. In any case, play doh has been BANNED from my house. Now I have made temporary dohs with flour salt and food coloring for the kids, but it was always confined to the kitchen or dining area! I remember having to get play doh out of everything when my youngest was little!
Oh goodness! What little girls can do sith make-up!
I agree about Play-Doh, too. As a mom, it was always so annoying to have Play-Doh everywhere. (As a primary teacher, I had the same thoughts about glitter.)
I agree about the Play-Doh...I make my kids play with it on the kitchen table and it is not allowed on the carpet! They are pretty good about obeying the rules on that one. Great pic of your daughter.

ROFL!!!! Oh how I feel you woman! The play-doh in the carpet is a night-MARE! That stuff hardens like concrete :(
And the bronzer...oh that is classic :)
Yes don't we all think something always looks better on us :) loved that comment and your beautiful bronzed princess.
I think she's really adorable.
Great pick for this week's theme!
Well if she just gets a lesson on applying said bronzing powder.... :)
Um... so why do you get your kids Play-Doh despite it being "evil stuff"?? (Am guessing it's because they REALLY love it and you really love them. ;b)
She's a lovely little girl..Happy New Year..Mine Is Up Too:
