Paint Explosion
Wanted to post something bit different for country kids this week so here are our outside paint photos.
This activity got took outside when I realised that we needed quite a bit of space,I soon found out that painting outside adds a completely different dimension to the activity and it was fun

Two minutes later a torrential rain storm came and i had to dash outside and rip the artwork off the drive and it went soggily in the bin.As they always say though the fun is in the doing not the end result!
It made me want to do more outside painting as it was so fun to paint big.Watch this space!

It's a shame the rain ruined the pictures but like you say it's the doing that counts. Great outdoor fun x
ReplyDeleteIt was great outdoor fun and doesnt the rain 'always' try to spoil outside fun!We cant let it win tho,can we

Oh bless and such great art work,bet it was lots of fun making :)
ReplyDeleteThank you,it was really fun to do,not a activity for the faint hearted tho,especially when the black paint came out!
DeleteDefinitely one to do outside, I love the great ideas that come up on Country Kids for fun outdoor activities, gives me so many more ideas too! Thanks for sharing this one and watching this space for the next!
ReplyDeleteYes a real outside paint activity!
DeleteHi Jess...I quite liked the "splatter paintings". It is too bad they got all soggy in the rain. But yes, the process was the fun part!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your sweet comment on my SWS post. We went to church yesterday to see two of our granddaughters profess faith in Christ, and get baptized! it was wonderful. They are Will's sisters...and yesterday was Will's 17th birthday. So, it was good to get to be with him on his actual birthday. We did lunch afterwards. (:>) And we will have a party soon for 3 more family birthdays!
Yes, it is fun to have these gatherings of the entire family, and I look forward to them so much.
Where abouts in the United Kingdom do you live? My husband was born in England during the war. His mom was English and his dad was an American GI. When John retired we spent a month in England. it was wonderful!
Hope you will have a good week ahead!

Hello Linda
DeleteI live in the Midlands.What a great story about your husbands mum and dad,it sounds really romantic :-)
Your Will is near enough the same age as my two eldest sons,Tiger is 19 and Sharky is 16 and then young Chipmunk is just 8.
Its our last week off from school so I too hope we manage to have a good week and I hope you and your lovely family do too :-)
Ah we haven't painted outside yet but it looks so much fun I think we'll give it a go..probably the wrong time to start painting outside with the autumn coming round the corner but watch this space! xx
ReplyDeleteEvening Hannah :-) Painting outside is fun!Let me know when you try it.We did painting with water outside too last week,that was good fun and no mess really,bet your two would love that :-)
DeleteThat is a fun painting project. I am sure the kids loved squirting the paint. Please stop by and link this post (and any other arts, crafts and play posts) to Artsy Play Wednesday on Capri + 3. I hope to see you there.
