Aleah and Sophi were sick and Aleah had to stay home from school which majorly bummed her out. Soooooo, mommykins to the rescue!
I wanted to give them a bath to get their snotty noses cleared out and also wanted it to be special.
Cue the kid bath paint. Here is how you make it:
2 tbsp. cornstarch
1/3 c. liquid kid soap
Several drops food colouring
Smidge of water to get a good paint consistency
The kids looooved it. And I had to pry them out of the tub because the water wasn’t exactly warm by the time the paint ran out.
And one bonus side effect that I didn’t see coming was the tub was squeaky clean when they were done! All that soap and scrubbing really did my bathroom some good! Yay, finally a craft that got something clean instead of making me clean up afterwards for hours.
Brilliant! What a great idea. I hope they’re feeling better. If not, just break out a new box of band aids for whatever ails them! I hear it even works for earaches.
Caitlyn I just loved this post and idea and had to try it with our little guy! He loved it! Thanks for the idea! Keep up the great work on your blog! 🙂
