Regardless of whether they're stuck inside, on a play date or just feeling artistic, painting is just plain fun for kids. So if you hear the dreaded complaints of "I'm bored!" this summer, then just don some smocks and go to town to create some artistic masterpieces. Even the youngest kids in your family can enjoy paint. It's just a matter of playing with their food - babies and toddlers will enjoy vanilla yogurt with different food colorings added to make "paint." Mix it up, dump it out on the highchair tray, and let your mini-Monet go to town. For older children, it's a blast to actually be allowed to paint a wall! If you have one in your garage or basement that you don't mind painting, then let them have at it and create a beautiful mural. If you get tired of it, then you can simply paint over it. Or better yet, use washable paints to remove the design and start all over. Get creative with painting designs by ditching the brush.
