Potato stamps

It rained all day long and it's actually still raining. It was the kind of sticky, cold rain that freezes your bones and make you just want to stay in bed all day long. Well, with two very active young boys, this is not an option for me.
To forget about the weather outside, as I had mentioned in my previous post, I decided to make some stamps with my oldest son (the two year-old participated a little bit at the end) using potatoes, cookie cutters and paint. It is extremely easy to make and a great way to entertain the kids for at least an hour.
Take a look at the pictures:



And, as kids will always be kids, art projects can (usually) get very messy. So, once we were done with our potatoes stamps, soon the hands also became stamps. With paint all over their hands and happy faces, the boys ran straight to a warm and long bath. The afternoon was a success!
