I've been so sick lately, so i just wanted to get them outside doing somehting different. I used water,chalk, toothbrushes, the little medicine syringes for squirting, and paint brushes. I bet they would have had fun playing with the hose, though! We had fun with water and chalk today, too! I've been so sick lately, so i just wanted to get them outside doing somehting different.

And the sidewalk chalk. I know she would get a total kick out of this. I'll definitely give it a whirl this summer. Thanks for the suggestion! :) My 4-year-old also loves the garden hose.

We did fun stuff with chalk on the driveway, then walked through the chalky puddles to make footprints. When the water evaporated from the prints, the chalky footprint was left. Kids love to jump in puddles, why not learn something as well?! We used an idea similar to this when I was teaching my kids about evaporation.

Now she will have an objective, there will be less chance for mischief. All I can say is Thank you…..my 4 yr old has been begging to play with the hose….but I didn't just want to set her loose.

He insists on showering with me so I bought the crayola water crayons and paints and us them to draw the numbers, shapes, colors etc on the wall. Then he uses a water gun or squirting toy to spray the shapes as I or he names them. I do something similar with my son.
