Unlike our chicken snails, this "project" (as Lucy would call it) was so EASY! Definitely a pre-bath activity, though. After our masterpiece dried we had fun cutting the butcher paper to make shapes Lucy recognized. Highly recommend. Good times.
(So...I'm a big fan of "Picasa"! Anyone else use it for their pictures?)

THAT was easy?! You do amaze me my friend. I microwaved a frozen burrito yesterday...now do you understand was easy is? love you
I meant...WHAT easy is. sorry
No - believe me! It was super easy. Not super clean, but super easy - the paint whips up in 5 minutes. Lucy loved it.
Wow! I don't know if I'd attempt that with William! I think he'd run away and get it all over the carpet, couches, etc. Maybe one day when I'm feeling brave.
Love picasa! I used it even before blogging and its the best! glad you like !
I heart Picasa very much. And I'm excited to try the finger paint recipe. And Lucy reminds me so much of Henry...it is so fun to read your blog and nod my head in agreement with every other word :)
