Finger Paint and Popsicles

One day this past week Cristina Brown came over to play for a while....Mayah is loving having her right next door! Me too. After a couple hours of them playing I took out the finger paints for some fun. Even with fingerpaints there are teaching moments. Leah tells me her colors, the big girls are using fine motor skills, we talk about mixing red and blue to make purple, Cristina and I made a C for her name...it was great!

What to do with all this watermelon I cut???? Mayah asked if we could make popsicles....sure! Leah was so very excited about this. So, Mayah helped me puree the watermelon a bit and into the freezer they went. The next day for lunch......watermelon popsicles!
