Watercolor Painting for Toddlers

As we do our informal tot school over the summer, I’ve been looking for different ways to get Squeaker engaged. It’s not something that I want to force with her because I want her to enjoy the summer. We’ve been spending a bit of time outside, but only when it’s not too humid or hot. Most of the time she’s content to just play in her little wading pool or we’ll head up to the park to go play in the splash pool. Yesterday though, we tried out something different. The end result? Easy watercolor painting for toddlers. She had fun with it and afterwards, we played with the hose. While you could most certainly does this indoors as well, we chose to go outside…

Toddler Toothbrushing Chart

Welcome back to another Freebie Friday! Taking a short break from the Bible based printable packs so I can further organize my ideas and look for the best clipart. I really want to do a pack based on the Tower of Babel so, that one will be coming up soon! In the meantime, I want to share a toddler toothbrushing chart that I recently created for Squeaker.

And since she’s loves everything “Owaf” that’s the theme we went with. We have a step stool next to the sink so she can…
