Balloon Painting
Balloon painting is an old favorite of mine. I love how the kids giggle when I tell them what we are painting with

What a fantastic idea! I can just see how my kids will love this activity
Fun, fun, fun :-) I'm going to have to do this again soon - thanks for the reminder of such a great activity!!
This looks like a blast! We had some fun with balloons last week - we painted ON the balloons (as well a couple activities) - but haven't used the balloons to paint WITH - and I absolutely love that Tie Dyed look you guys got! Maybe we'll be doing this after Henry's birthday party next week with some left over balloons :)
Jamie @ hands on : as we grow
how divine - she does look so happy in her work. Would it work even better if the balloons were filled up a bit with water? Would that give them more squish? Just thinking out loud :-)

Cate: That is a fab idea I will give that a try next time. Or even in the bathtub that would be awesome!!!

My daughter would love to paint with balloons! Thanks for sharing
Hi Andrea,
Do you think a nearly 19 month old toddler can do the balloon painting as I have one and it seems pretty interesting to do. Thanks a lot
Shilps I'm sure your daughter would love this activity. As long as you watched her closely so she didn't put the balloons in her mouth. I burst them when we were finished and double baged them so Jada or the dog couldn't find them in the trash.
Super fun! Might try this tomorrow!
This looks super cute! Did you read a book to go along with this activity?
Oooohhhh, I never would have thought of that! What a fun idea!
Thanks so much for sharing this at For the Kids Friday Link Party! I will be posting the next party tomorrow night. I hope to have you stop by and join us for another week sharing great ideas for our kids!!
Thanks for stopping by!

If you have a moment today, please share this with my readers @Creative Juice Thursday Hope to see yours among all the amazing projects!
Thanks for sharing this at Creative Juice! Hope to see you back at the party tonight!
This idea and the straw painting were great. I've included this project as well on my weekly Do Something! posting.
Rachele @ Messy Kids
I just found your blog linked on another blog (about things they want to make with their kids).
I love these projects you do with your daughter. I have a 2 year old and am always looking for fun new creative things to do with her :)
I have bookmarked your site and will be checking in often!
Thanks,
