I just made some paint in the kitchen.

| red, blue and green - added food colouring |
Got my ideas from:

I tweaked the recipe and used tumeric powder for the yellow and red cabbage juice for the purple. I added one drop of lavendar aroma oil into the purple for a better smell. As for yellow, I didn't add because it has the smell from the tumeric spice.

It's the LEAF and BRANCHES theme. G is kinda surprised that mommy is allowing the mess when I poured paint on her fingers and some on the paper. She tore part of the paper and I quickly tape it down. She ate some red paint and almost wanted to put the spoon with green paint into her mouth as well. The whole activity took her about 15 minutes. Who says babies have short attention span? LOL.
A second go at it...
This time she ate some paint. And swallowed a flower when I tried to dig it out.
