Springtime is finally here in DC.  And what better way to kick-start Spring, than a good finger-painting session.

Finger painting is fun, it’s inexpensive and it’s easy to clean up.

Go outside and paint, find some grass and paint the grass too.

All finger paints wash off with water, maybe a little soap- that’s it.

My son and I always start with strictly the fingers, then move to hands and then…

feet!

A few thoughts:

The Tao of Finger Painting

You can’t be mad and finger paint. You can’t be stressed and finger paint. You unconsciously relax when finger painting.

My son always has a grin on his face when he’s finger painting. So do I.

There is something really rewarding about making a picture with your hands…

Mixing colors and creating new shades never gets old…

No one gets old if they finger paint.
