So since my last post about my kids in the craftroom we've ventured to Lakeshore Learning to gather more kid-friendly supplies for their crafts. My supplies (and heart) couldn't take any more of their roughness! *lol*
Have you ever heard of Lakeshore Learning? Well it's a fabulous teacher supply store that has EVERYTHING you could ever want for some fabulous craftmaking with kids.
Here's some of the stuff I bought - some things are missing because the kids got to the bag before I was able to snap a picture!
I picked up some construction paper packs ($0.99!), foam cut-outs, large WASHABLE stamping ink pads, paint containers, and tissue squares, glue, colored macaroni....
The kids had a blast. :)
Oh and I picked up these art trays to contain their mess.
And what a mess they made....
Then it was on to the painting...
M had a fabulous time...
And J loved making his "palm tree with coconuts in the sun..."
Happy Tuesday, everyone! Thanks for stopping by! :)
That is too cute!!! Love the pic that Jonah made! How cool is that colored macaroni? And that reminds me - I need watercolors! ;)

Sounds like a fabulous store and those fun macaroni noodles make me want to make something :) The kiddos look like they are having fun painting! Their masterpieces look fabulous and I love the Hello Kitty shirt your little M is wearing! I also love those trays! I need to find myself some of those!

Genius! I would never have thought about using a tray. I am so swiping that idea. I do have a modified craft table with a giant roll of white craft paper underneath that I cover the top with but the tray looks like a good way to contain the paint.
