Canvas Painting

 What you need:

• Paints (you can mix up acrylic, oil, finger paint, fabric paint, etc)
• Plate
• Brushes
• Canvas

 What you do:

1. Squirt paints on a plate and let toddler go at it.
2. Hang artwork on wall.

 How to clean up:

1. Wipe toddler down with baby wipes or stop by sink for a wipe down.
2. Throw all brushes and paint plate in a sink with hot soapy water.
3. Spray table/painting area with a cleaner and let sit for 10 mins.
4. Come back with paper towel and wipe up.
5. Come back and rinse brushes after an hour.

This seems like a messy activity but it is actually one of the easier ones for me to clean up. It is mostly a matter of soaking, but no scrubbing. Food messes are the real troublemaker.
