Tip of the Day

Today's tip is for the brave of heart.
Finger painting with pudding. That's right. Toddlers LOVE to put things in their mouth. So give them something safe to paint with. I actually did this once for my teacher evaluation. It went GREAT! The kids loved it, and it was funny to discover that yes, you can eat this paint.
Why is it for the brave of heart? Have you seen a toddler eat? And you would knowingly give them something that they will probably smear everywhere? Try vanilla instead of chocolate. Try during the summer- right before you let them cool off (wash off) in the pool! Try it in the bathtub to contain the mess. But try it- it's fun- I promise!
