Finger painting without the fingers

Aunt Nessa came over today to help with preparations for the weekend festivities.  Miss M was generally being a little fussy (she was tired but refused to sleep).  Aunt Nessa let Miss M play with the center of the celery stalks. Miss M loved carrying them around and occasionally munching on them.  She didn't munch on them much because they were quite bitter.  

Aunt Nessa thought it was a good idea to get out the finger paint and let Miss M finger paint using the celery as a paint brush. Genius.  The girl is just a genius. I guess those are the tricks you pick up after teaching pre-school for a few years!  

Miss M wasn't impressed at first. 

 But in typical Miss M fashion she came around a little bit and then became super serious about her celery painting.


We will have to keep this activity in mind for those rainy/snowy days when we don't know what to do with our time!  Thanks Aunt Nessa for being a genius!
