I feel this photo captures my two children’s personalities perfectly: Emma painting carefully with a brush, and Johnny moving quickly from paintbrush to hands…

…and then from paper to hair (sorry this second photo is so over-exposed):

  1. Making of a Montessori Mum

    he he. I think my little girl is similar to your boy. We start with any piece of equipment and it quickly moves to her hands. Actually I'm the same, I STILL prefer to eat with my hands. weird perhaps. I still use cutlery in restaurants though! (:

  2. I'm loving washable paint because Conner decided to get out the purple and paint a scrap of fabric while sitting on the carpet. AACKK! Kids are funny, aren't they.

  3. I agree you can really tell the difference in their personalities in the 1st pic. I need to get some washable paint!

  4. josh, erica, nora and wells

    In my book, you're brave to even try some of these projects. At least you have one neat child… I've been thinking about you today. I think I'll call later if I can.

  5. too funny! Noah doesnt like to get messy but some times he does and wants it washed off fast.
