My girl likes to be messy. She likes to grind things into her hands just to feel it. She loves the mud and playing in the sink. You can't tell in the pic, but there is mud all over her face even. Belle was so disturbed that I was letting her just play in it. Belle is the one who wouldn't finger paint because the paint got all over her hands! So funny! The mom is laughing and taking pics and the eight year old is saying, "Do you see what she's doing? She has mud all over her! She's grinding it into her knees! Have you seen how much mud she has on her clothes?" Love my different girls!
Since she so loved the mud, I had to take out the finger paints and see what she did. I couldn't get her to do any kind of a picture. She just mashed all the paints together and got all in it. It was a huge smear of paint... mostly brown! She is hysterical! I had to post the video of her just singing while she was messing in it... total contentment!
The next project I envisioned as a nice bowl of baking soda with four small bowls of colored vinegar. She was supposed to spend hours using a dropper to drop little bits of the vinegar unto the soda and watch it fizz. She did that a few times and then was all in it with her hands. Soon the small bowls where fizzing over as she put handfuls of the soda into the little bowls as well... a much bigger fizz! Nicely done. She's still over there. Dropper is long gone and she's toting balls of vinegar and soda all over the table and floor! She really slays me! Every now and then she yells that something is wrong because she's put too much soda into the vinegar and it's bubbling over!!!! Not the way I thought it would go, but WAY fun all at the same time!
