Birthday party

This year I coined the phrase "one buddy birthday party" for the kids getting to do something special with one friend instead of a much crazier (and more expensive) party!  Toby had his fun time at the indoor playground, Emma opted to go painting.

Once Emma picked the friend she wanted to bring, we had to find a painting that they could do.  It turned out to be Opulent Elephant!


For their snack/dinner we brought along a pizza!  Which they nibbled on as parts of the painting dried.

It was a very quiet lesson,

They did great, and while the control freak in me struggled with Emma's personal interpretations and changes, I was impressed with how well she followed the directions!





This is one activity that both Emma and I really enjoy.  If only doing it together wouldn't mean two of every picture!
