I think B’s first experience with fingerpaints is best shown in pictures. It actually went pretty well. When I first gave L fingerpaints, she was about 12 months old, and it was completely impossible to keep her hands out of her mouth. B, for whatever reason, didn’t really try to eat the paint, which made things a thousand times easier.
I love the open mouth/tongue sticking out concentration! 🙂
That is a great series of pictures… and finger paint is edible anyway, right? 🙂
Actually Becca, some fingerpaint is edible, but I’m pretty sure the type I have is not. I mean, I doubt it’s too toxic, but given a choice, better not to eat it.
