Let's Get Messy, Day One

What three year old doesn't like to get messy?

Briar sure does, especially while at the Children's Museum's Art Camp.

The day started off with a progressive, multi-media canvas.

We then moved onto a sensory activity, allowing the kids to color a ball of play-doh based on the scent they perceive.  I was amazed how Briar came up with purple for lavender, not knowing what lavender smells like.  Here she is working on an orange scented ball of dough.

After a snack we moved onto a super cool project involving squirt guns, water colors, and a great big mess!

However, my favorite project of the day was a very cool shaving cream, watercolor print,

the end result was very pretty!

After completing a few more projects we ate our lunch, toured the museum, and headed to a downtown Starbucks to kill some time before picking sister up from the Magik Theater.

It was the perfect way to spend Mommy & Me time with Briar, looking forward to our week of messes!
