Toddler Thursday! -- Pudding Paint
Welcome to the first weekly Toddler Thursday!
As a SAHM, I frequently find myself thinking that Reagan must be bored to death with me (especially during bad weather when we're stuck in doors all the time)and I'm always struggling for us to find something new and fun to do! I hope some of the ideas that I've found (and Reagan and I have experimented for you) will give you some great new ideas to do with your toddler! Please leave comments or questions! And feel free to join in every Thursday!
This week's fun toddler activity is Pudding Paint!
Materials:
small containers
food coloring
vanilla pudding (I used premade pudding cups!)
Put a small amount of pudding in each container and mix in 2-3 drops of food coloring for each color. Tape construction paper down to your toddler's high chair or table and let the fun begin!
I recommend stripping your toddler down to his/her diaper or undies for this project!
Here are Reagan and I enjoying pudding paint!
This week, Reagan and I also enjoyed a new snack-English Muffin Pizzas! They were delicious and really not that messy! The recipe is below:
English Muffin Pizzas
2 English Muffins, split
olive oil
spaghetti sauce
shredded cheese, your favorite type is fine
Preheat oven to 350. Brush the muffins with olive oil and spoon on spaghetti sauce. Top with shredded cheese and bake for 11-13 minutes, until cheese is melted and the muffins are browned on the bottom! Let cool before serving to your toddler and enjoy!

I was told about this pudding paint but haven't tried it yet. I think the dogs would get too interested and try to lick it off of her. So she won't get any good "painting" time in.
ReplyDeleteGlad to see that Reagan enjoyed herself. And the mini-pizzas sound delicious!
Great idea. I'll have to put that one in my memory reserves (yeah, right) for a rainy day activity.
ReplyDeleteI remember eating english muffin pizzas growing up. Yum!
