Rainy Day





I tested out some activities I've been wanting to try with Izzy since its been a cold, rainy weekend.

1. Homemade edible finger paint recipe and instructions found at the Imagination Tree. This was a fun activity though the "paint" itself was more paste-like and not very vibrant.

2. Making bubbles with vinegar an baking soda. Found idea from mama smiles. ( I previously posted on this one). For a toddler, I suggest using a straw cup with a lid (and no straw) to pour out the vinegar or a sippy cup with the no-spill stopper removed. This is a really fun, but messy activity. We end up have white spots in the "splash zone" around Izzy's highchair. I let her clean up her tray as part of the activity, but she invariably ends up splaying the vinegar and baking soda slosh on the floor.
