Day 154: Finger painting by Glow Sticks

So call this a cop out of you want to, but I have been itching to do this with craft since the beginning of the year.  My biggest problem has been that I haven't been able to find a way to make glow sticks in the bathtub a craft.  Well today I decided that we were simply going finger paint by glow stick.


Well that led to a problem, we have a window in our bathroom, in the tub, and the sun sets outside the bathroom window.  So bath time is the time of day that the sun is the absolute brightest in the bathroom.  It took 2 attempts at covering the window but I finally found a large brown blanket that i hung from the curtain rod and tapped down to the wall with masking tape, that darkened the room enough.  


I don't really know that the finger paint ended up being nearly as exciting as the glow sticks.  Even Coraline enjoyed them, this was really the first time she had been able to be involved in a craft.  


Sorry, no pics tonight but as a rule of thumb we try keeping the kids pics off the blog and in a bath craft it is hard to take a pic and not have a kid in it.  Overall though, bath time was a huge hit!
