Homemade Finger Painting with a Truck

It was nice out and I wanted to do something where we could enjoy the day outdoors, so the Mr. and I mixed up a batch of homemade finger-paint. I don't recall exactly where I found this particular recipe, but I have a bunch 'pinned' on my board http://pinterest.com/allymott/activities-for-kids/. 

We dressed D in only a play t-shirt and unrolled some paper outside. D started by carefully using the paint brushes. I love how the colors turned out. 

Then he painted the rocks that were holding the paper down.

It wasn't long before the trucks came out. He loved rolling them across the wet paint and watching the tracks that the wheels made.

 Then he used his fingers and hand...

But eventually went back to the truck.

We left it out to dry and anytime he passed by the window, he would point and say "paint!' I loved how it turned out so I framed a portion of it and hung it in his bedroom.
