Music at Home

What do you do on a rainy spring day with a one year old that is bored of everything?

Make something new.

Then make it messy.

We have a bunch of leftover ladybug plates from her birthday party so I thought I would put them to good use. 

Elise and I made tambourines.





Simple. 
It takes 2 minutes to throw some uncooked pasta between two plates and staple it shut.

She loved it.  She quickly started banging it against the side of her highchair and tapping it with her fingers.  She loves anything that makes noise (of course).

Then we added in paint.
Just to make it messy!


I love how my polite little girl signs please (asking for her sippy cup) with a hand full of paint...  Thank goodness for washable paints.

And non-toxic!
Look at that face!
