Lil Lady prefers to stay clean. She is getting better about being a little dirty but she still stresses a little about it. Painting with water was a great activity for us! You can't get sticky or muddy or messy with water! It's also great on warm sunny days to do in the shade and cool down a bit.
We had a neighbor friend over to play for a few hours who has Down Syndrome and I decided that it'd be a great time to Water Paint. All you do is get a cup of water, any type of paint brush, and head outside. They each enjoyed painting pictures and then a few minutes later discovering that they had disappeared. At first, it stressed Lil Lady out that her art was gone but once I explained what happened she was okay with it. Our friend also had fun painting himself!
They had fun moving area to area on the back patio making new creations.
And when the "paint" spills, no worries! It'll clean up quite nicely! The only problem we found with this activity was when our friend decided to throw his cup of water at Lil Lady-that didn't go over so well! :)
