Even as I was mixing up the paint for this little activity, I thought to myself, what am I doing? Visions of rainbow-colored walls danced through my head as I stirred food coloring into the vanilla pudding. But heck, I thought. It's only pudding. And he's going to have so much fun.I was right.
He dug into each goopy, gloppy, gelatinous bowl and painted to his little heart's content.
We did one color at a time to prevent the "paint" from going gray or something. (And I guess I was trying to make sure my vision of a rainbow-colored kitchen didn't come true.)
In the end, there was a light spattering of blue all over the table, wall, and kitchen cabinet. And all over his face, of course. But the damage was minimal -- nothing a damp towel couldn't handle.
And lucky for Kellan, we still have lots of pudding paint left!
So fun! I love the food coloring, we always just finger painted with chocolate pudding. I think the kids ate more than they painted. He looks like he had so much fun.
