Dear Reader,
I think we are gonna have a lot of toddlers-want-to-be-like-sisters posts in our future. This one, included. When they say sister using paint for apples, they wanted to paint, too. I wasn’t in the mood to deal with that huge of a mess, even if I made sure to buy the washable paint, so I filled a few quart bags with the same red paint, taped them shut, and handed them to the twins.
They liked the squishy aspect, and kinda drew with the paint, but their favorite thing to do was to squish their handprints into the paint bag. It was a really good sensory experience for them, actually! And I totally just came up with it on the fly, since I was in the middle of helping big sister with /a/ apples.
And naturally, since sister was using an apple to stamp with, we had to eat apples at the same time. Since my toddlers are learning colors, it was also a good time to reiterate that their apple was red and their paint was red.
