Shaving Cream Delight

"I want a Christmas activity" is the catch-cry at our house at the moment, it's already wearing a little thin. Activities have included moon dough, magic sand, painting, playdough, new toys, games, etc... One of our more unusual gifts to the kids was a can of shaving cream.  It has already emerged at bath time for some slippery fun - the little one was calling it "Shame" which is a cross between shaving cream and foam.
 Shame with food die - Fame perhaps.


  A visit to the hairdressers is on the cards this holidays, we're saving on sunglasses.








 
This activity got a little messier than I expected.  Little one required a bath at the end. Amazingly the big Bowerbird cleaned the whole mess up while I was bathing little Bowerbird and said it was fun. A very tactile activity and a good lesson in mixing colours as well.

In the spring, at the end of the day, you should smell like dirt.

“She turned to the sunlight
And shook her yellow head,
And whispered to her neighbour:
"Winter is dead.”
