Final Green Week Activities

 We went to the park in our greenest clothing. As you can see, Claire is not so happy discovering grass. But she thought the dirt and gravel looked too good to pass up.
Today we took a green bath. The bath paint was made from conditioner and cornstarch with blue and yellow food coloring. (use more conditioner than starch) I let the kids moosh it all up in a big zip-loc bag so they could watch the blue and yellow combine to make green. This was the easiest clean up of all the activities.

We played in the dried peas again. Today I hid all the letters of the alphabet. Will found the letters and Ruth marked off which letters they were so they knew when they had found them all. This was good team work, good exposure for Will to all the letters and good practice for Ruth being patient!
 Next week: Orange!
