I find myself trying to steer clear of messy projects even though I know my kids would enjoy them. The girls especially love to paint but I don’t love cleaning paint off the walls and floors for days after. I found some paint markers (kinda like bingo dabbers) and thought it was a perfect solution!  All the mess ended up on the kids and not the walls!

My children LOVE the show Peep.  It’s a cute little show on Discovery Kids that teaches children about science.  The main characters are Peep, a baby chicken, Chirp, a baby robin, and Quack, an obnoxious duck.  Peep is a life saver – it’s the one thing I can count on to calm the kids down during a bad day!  Parker has even painted the trio.
