In an effort to get the kids outside, I coaxed them with the idea of shaving cream play. Neither one of them had ever "felt" shaving cream before, and the experience was first met with giggly "eeeee-ooos!!". Before I knew it, they were up to their elbows and knees in it, making shaving cream hand puppets.
We loaded up each tray with shaving cream, added food coloring drops to the corners of each tray, and I greased each of their hands with Vaseline in order to try and keep the food coloring from staining their hands.
This is an activity that will keep them busy for a good hour outside. And the clean up with the water hose is just as much fun as the shaving cream.
