The boys love texture painting. Sponges, weird sponges, sponges with handles, etc. They also decided they wanted to glue beads and sparkly jewels on their paintings.
Max loves turning any and everything into a space ship of some kind. There it is, blasting through space before making an emergency landing on his painting.
Our little thinker. Where does this bead belong?...
After dinner, when the paint was dry, Pace wanted to add another layer to his painting and he drew a bunch of "Mom"s in hearts and the Axiom (his two latest obsessions, his mama, and the space ship from WallE).
And then the next morning, the boys wanted to do splatter painting on top of their texture paintings. So I got some food coloring paint ready and they were occupied for at least an hour! I love that they were mixing media, techniques, textures--all of their own volition!

Fun! Have you ever done potato stamps? We'd always make wrapping paper or table cloths with butcher paper and potato stamps when I was little.
I've seen it done, but never tried myself, or with the boys yet! Wrapping paper is a fun idea!
