Our little ones gathered at Lowville Park yesterday for our first of many Picasso's in the Park programs.Our momstown Milton members met up with momstown Burlington to create some wonderful, vibrant works of art and enjoy a day out in the sun.
Our theme this month is Construction so we used different mediums such as cars, trucks, loaders etc to wheel thru the globs of paint that was scattered all over the tables.
At one point, one of our tots discovered that the car he was playing with could be wound up and released to spin it's wheels. The paint splattered everywhere! What a mess, but that's what it is all about! Letting loose, letting go of your inhibitions and just allowing yourself and your child to explore and enjoy without worrying about the clean up afterwards!
Once our budding artists were done, we pulled out the giant parachute to sing some songs and play some games. I think the moms liked "sleeping bunnies" the best because it seemed to settle down the kids if only for a few moments!
Park play and a picnic in the park was a great way to wrap up the event. I can't wait until next month when we do it all again with different sensory equipment. You'll have to sign up to attend in order to find out what we will be using next!
