Painting in the Bath Tub { DIY Recipe}
We had fun painting in the bath tub!!!
DIY Bath Tub Paint Recipe
Mix shaving cream with kid-friendly, washable paint in a container that is safe for children to use. I placed a different paintbrush in each color in an effort to not have everything turn brown right away from mixing together.
I had them wear their swim suits so I could take cute pictures of them creating their giant masterpiece.
Both my 1 year old toddler and my preschooler loved this painting activity! They didn’t even make that big of a mess and my son had just as much fun cleaning it up with a small towel and the shower running.
Of course my son couldn’t resist making a couple of handprints! His little sister tried to paint herself too and later enjoyed squishing the shaving cream paint between her hands.

The colours are gorgeous. Such a fun idea. I bet they want to do it every bath time,<br /><br />Thanks for linking to the Sunday showcase
This looks so fun! Will have to try with my non-bath loving kids. Vicky from <a href="http://www.messforless.net" rel="nofollow">www.messforless.net</a>
I found another recipe for bath tub paint that was used either liquid watercolor or food coloring. I opted for food coloring as I did not have liquid watercolor on hand. We used it today as it was a rainy day. My (recently turned) 2 year old absolutely LOVED it. It was super easy to clean up with no staining at all. 🙂 just thought I would share that you can use food coloring, too. 🙂
