messy fun

i knew it was going to be a hot one today

so we headed out right after breakfast

around 8:30am

it was BEAUTIFUL!!

i really didn't want to take them back in for project time 

so...

i brought out the paint

a bucket of soapy water

paint brushes, tooth brushes 

and an old towel i cut up

and the kids were BUSY!

painting the house

(i added dish soap to the paint so i knew the paint would come off easily)

painted the big window

(it needs to be cleaned!!!!!)

the kids think this is the coolest thing that i let them paint the big window!

playing in a soapy bucket of water

oh, hello little friend!

today was not only childcare but puppycare 

we had a little visitor for a couple days and we will be so sad to see her go!

she was an excellent dog!!

these two boys were soaked!!  and loving every single minute of it!

i think as long as they have a car or a bucket of water they are content!

soapy bucket of water is a treat!

work in progress before the kids decided it was time to wash it all off!

more painting and brushing going on!

i would have never guessed that 

dish rags in soapy water+ toddlers = happy busy boys!

wringing out the rags was about the only thing this little man did for a good 30 minutes!

washing the house!

so friends get out some soapy paint, some soapy water and let the kids have fun making a mess and then cleaning that mess back up again!  i have a feeling this will become a weekly project at this daycare!
