Mess-less Painting with Baby
I love to craft all the time. It’s one of my most favorite past times. Yarn, fabric, felt, wood, embroidery floss, and paint are just a few of the mediums I like to work with. As my sweet boy has gotten older the amount I can craft has increased because he can entertain himself for a little while but he usually just ends up staring at whatever I am doing. The look on his face making it clear he wants to get his hands on my crafts. One day while painting I thought it would be nice if he could paint with me but I didn’t want to make rice cereal paint because it seemed unnecessarily messing and I would never be able to keep it as his first artwork (I’m ever so slightly sentimental AND he is my first lol). I also couldn’t just put nontoxic paint down because at 5 months he puts EVERYTHING in his mouth. So I grabbed some paint, card stock, a zip top bag, and some painter’s tape. I plopped a few colors of paint onto the card stock and placed it in a zip top bag and then taped it down
