Not so much a "busy activity," but it's REALLY FUN way to spend time with your kids, switch things up a bit from the mundane routine and heck, it's CHEAP (if you already have some face paint or finger paints around). If not, it's well worth the $5-7 to spend to get some kid friendly finger paints (is there even an "adult friendly" finger paints? lol)
What got me to do this crazy thing?
We like to explore the library often. We go once a week, or every two weeks if we can wait that long. We check out like 30 books at a time, no joke (a good tip here is to RESERVE books ONLINE folks! It makes life a LOT easier if you have no time and kids running in different directions :)
Anyway....I randomly picked up a "face painting" book from the kid's section and thought it'd be fun. The kids got to choose what they wanted on their face, and I have to admit....
I HAD SO MUCH FUN! LOL
The kids? Well, they were STOKED. They were SO GIDDY and SO happy and SO excited and SO amused! They had fun playing their accompanying roles and well, we had a great day.
So cheap.
So fun.
So together.
Success.
(ps. Kai's a vampire and Jaiden's a skeleton--I never said I painted well) :)
