Crafty!

The boys have really been goin at it lately. They have a very bi-polar relationship and it can get very frustrating. We  have found the best solution is to separate them for a while. This is not always an easy task. Today it was. I put them in separate bath tubs and set them up with some finger paints made out of shaving cream and food coloring! It gave me a good hour of  peaceful, non-fighting time!

Gary's colors

Gary loved painting everything. including himself!

Isaac's colors

Isaac was a much neater painting.


It was fun to see how differently they painted and how their personalities came out in that.
Gary is messy and all over. He mixed his colors almost instantly. He put some in his water so that his water would turn colors.
Isaac was more meticulous. He kept his colors separate and neater. He didn't like getting his water colored.
It was a fun experiment that we will definitely be doing again!
