Fingerpainting Fun

I am always looking for some fun ways to let Curtis get good and dirty. After all boys need to be dirty at least ninety percent of their life to be consitered true men. Curtis has fingerpainted before but this time he actually got more paint on the paper than on himself. Huge improvement! Now that he has developed more language I love to quiz him to see what he can remember from the activity we just completed. Today I asked him what he drew and he remembered that we drew Jesus ("sesus"), circles ("cirk"), and his name though all he could remember was the letters "R" and "I". It is so much fun to see what his little brain can compute. The only color that he could remember was blue but then again every time you ask him what color something is he always resonds "bue". He is at such a fun age! Watching him learn and explore daily is such a joy.
