Simple Painting Activity

Recently, I shared a post of how to make an Edible Paint for your toddler. I prefer edible paint, because it's safer for them to play around with. Love this painting idea, you should give it a try!

You will need:

• Thick paper
• Q-tips

Drop lumps of paints on the paper. I had couple of different colors, just to make it more attractive.

Let them make mess on it, Jenn is so excited about this!

DIY Train

We have empty milk cartons every two days, can you imagine how many we have?
Instead of throwing it away, we upcycle it into crafts. 

Upcycle milk cartons into train is one of the must do craft, it's easy and useful.

Use it to store kids' hair clips, craft accessories, pencil holder or even let them use it as their toy!
This time, we have Lio as Jenn's fave cousin to make the train together.

Materials needed:

• Milk cartons
• Thick paper
• Waterbased paint
• Cardboard
• Marker
• Glue
• Scissor

Firstly, fully cover the milk carton with thick paper, I used drawing paper which is not easy to tear off. Then cut cardboards into circles as the train's wheels, color it with black marker.

Then let those little hands do their art by using marker or waterbased paint, but please keep an eye on them, they might paint your wall or even try to taste it!

I let them to use colorful markers at the beginning but seems like they're not interested with it, so I let them to use the paint for the rest of it.

Making an edible paint is a good idea, since toddlers like to taste everything new, I'll make one for the next project!

Let the paint dry off, and stick the wheels on both sides. 

Jenn couldn't wait for the train, she quickly take out her animals collection and look at that big smile she got on her face!
