Sensory play




J doesn't like to get his hands "dirty"- he immediately wants to wipe his hands off. So I have been working hard to get him used to having his hands dirty. We practice cracking eggs without wiping them off right away, painting with paintbrushes, shaving cream (this didn't go well at all), etc. So this night I pulled out some fingerpaint in the bathtub--- and he LOVED it! This is huge-- because he wouldn't normally do this. I am so proud of him- next up cool whip, pudding and then fingerpaint with paper.
