Art with Toddlers

Chalk drawings - everywhere, on the house, on furniture, on stuffed animals, sometimes on the ground, sometimes on one another, sometimes chalk body outlines like in CSI


Birthday cards - stickers, markers, stamps, stencils. Always a big hit!
Painting - must be done outside while naked (the kids not parents), have lots of plastic bags on hand, use old plastic take-away containers to hold paint, NO SHOES, encourage finger painting, buy rollers, have a huge roll of paper so it is big enough for everyone to paint on without fighting, they decide it is done, then get a huge bucket of soapy water and let them go to town...outside of course! Wyatt thought the bubbles were great until he realized what soap does to the eyes...
