“Play gives children a chance to practice what they are learning…They have to play with what they know to be true in order to find out more, and then they can use what they learn in new forms of play.” ~ Fred Rogers (Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood)

Painting with Strawberry Baskets

It's that time of year~Strawberries are in season!  My kids LOVE strawberries...well all fruit actually.  They love going to the fruit stands and Farmer Market to look at everything.  The best part of going there is that the berries come in the cute green baskets.  I really don't like throwing them away...they just look fun!  So I decided to let the kids paint with them.  

It's really easy...Paint in a tray, dip the baskets and paint!  I like how the final product looks.  Plus it's a good way to learn squares and color mixing :)
