We got home tonight and Caden kept asking to paint because, I bought something that looked like paint at the store. I didn't want to get all the stuff to paint out because, it was already time for a bath. Solution: I brought the paints to the bath! I mixed Washable paint with baby soap and then gave them brushes in the tub! It was so much fun to watch them paint and create with out having to worry about the mess at all. Adding the baby soap made it safe for both of the boys and it made it even easier to rinse off. When they were done painting we just drained the water then used the shower head to rinse the boys, the paint containers, the wall and the brushes! My youngest, Drake, really enjoyed this. He's never gotten to paint so freely before and I think it was a really good experience for him. This is something I am going to use for the middle of a rainy or hot day for sure!

I like this idea because you are using stuff you already have on hand intstead of buying one more thing to store. Great idea.
