~More Messy Art~justakrazymom | June 3rd, 2008 @ 11:24 am
Last night after Daddy went to work we decided to try another Messy Art project…these were the tools:

it started out as Bubble Prints: 1inch water,1inch tempra paint,one inch bubble mix… and a straw…



Taejan soon decided that was NOT nearly as fun as it could be:

Declan and Ziah stayed the course..for awhile:



but after one print each..well… it got MUCH more fun to explore the colors and medium MUCH …um.. further?


notice this time I put them in swim suits..LOL
before long the mad scientists in them emerged and I was no longer needed for the mixing and color making…


Even if bubble prints don’t work out, the bubble mix, water and paint mixture is VERY neat to work with and if your a brave parent I highly suggest you allow the kids to explore…cus it is FUN!







Anything was game for painting, moving,and mixing..


now I bet I have the prettiest driveway in the neighborhood..at least until next time it rains!


Noah decided to join us.LOL>.. by the time we were done he was a little multi colored himself…LOL


Hum…. I have a few more Messy Art idea’s..so check back in a week or so to see what else we did!!!

ROFL….oh my gosh. They had a wonderful time, eh!?
I can sure remember times like this myself. Waaaaay back when…I was the oldest, so I came up with the mess! My mom was always trying to reel me in. Sigh* oh to be young again!
Sure enjoying your art program Allison! My fav pic this time is Ziah sitting in the pink paint.

Looks like so much fun!! We’ll have to try it! I accidentally deleted the e-mail (from the lapbooking yahoo group) where you said how you pronounce your children’s names. I love their interesting names!!

Here’s another fun one to do….
Hang up a large plain white sheet DAMP, and let the kids paint it with tempera paints - then just hose it off, and paint again.

We did the bubble art last summer. Tissue paper works great with it! Looks like your crew had a great time!

I love your blog. Kalie has enjoyed your “projects” very much. We have another local homeschool friend (Amy) (without internet) who loves the projects also. Kalie is always excited to tell Hannah about the newest project they will “try”.
I have another homeschool friend (Laura) and the name of their homeschool is: Funner School and their mascot is the elephant. When I think of her, I think of you and visa-versa. She does all the fun, crazy things, too.
I wish Kalie had siblings closer in age to her so she would have someone to “learn” with.
