We’ve been busy on the homeschooling front. Lots of learning going on.
Ever painted with Jello?
No?
It’s easy. Really. Just add a small amount of water to the Jello. Just enough to get it to a painting consistency.
Using paint brushes, cotton swabs, cotton balls, and whatever else looks like great fun (rolling pins!) your little one can create a one of a kind masterpiece.
And best of all? You can eat your paint.
Continuing our exploration into colors I made some red and green ice cubes using food coloring.
Adding these in to a warm tub while Parker takes his bath allows him to do some color exploration by both sight and tough. They melt quickly, but that’s okay. The smile they leave stay on Parker’s face for quite awhile.
Next week we have lots of doctor appointments for our Brave Hero. The most important, and terrifying, is his echo and ekg on Tuesday. This will let us know how Parker’s PH levels are.
Our family will be praying for good results on Tuesday. We’d love for you to keep Parker in your prayers as well.
We will continue to keep Parker and your family in our prayers….
We are going to try the colored ice cubes…
Oh I will be praying Tammy, I never stop praying for Parker
He is too precious!
You always come up with the BEST ideas for playing wiht Parker! I love these!!!!
We will be praying for you guys
Jello painting is a great idea, may have to try that one with Junior
I love the Jello painting idea. How creative!!
You guys will be in my thoughts on Thursday. I hope it goes well.
Good luck on Tuesday! I love the bath/ice cube idea.
Praying, always.
I can imagine that Parker loved the edible paint!
Looks fun!
And we will keep you all in our prayers.
Ooo happy days. I remember the ice cube trays full of all kinds of potions both hideous and yummy.
I look forward to your future advanced postings when you start putting toys into the unset jelly and then getting them to ‘rescue’ them. [make sure you have an extra large carton of ear-plugs first]
Cheers
HOW FUN!! What a fabulous idea, I’m going to try that!
I sincerely hope all goes well with all of the appts next week. You and the the family will be in my thoughts!
I’m praying right now for some good news on Tuesday. Luke will be having his tonsils out that day, so we could use some prayers too.
