It has been raining this week. A lot. To avoid going stir crazy in the house yesterday this is what Mason and I did...
Have you ever experimented with corn starch and water? It is hard to describe the consistency it has. If you combine the two into a paste it forms this gooey blob of stuff that looks like a liquid and will form little puddles when you drop it on the floor, but you can pick it back up without leaving a trace. Weird huh?
At some point you'll have to let your kids play with it on the kitchen floor. I cranked up the heat in our tiny kitchen, stripped Mase and set him on a towel and let him go crazy with a bowl of water and cornstarch.
He loved every minute of it.
Cleaning up is ridiculously easy. Rinse off your kid, pick up the blobs of goo from the floor and wipe the surface down with a wet rag and you're done.
Everyone is happy. :)
So cute! How do you think of these things??
ReplyDeletethat is SUCH a great idea!!! I am totally going to steal this idea! Hooray for rainy day activities!
ReplyDeleteL., you've got to be resourceful when you're stuck in 900 square feet with a 12 month old. :)
ReplyDeleteMel, I can't wait to see pictures! The girls are going to LOVE doing this.
