Somewhere over the rainbow

We love all the colors in a rainbow, they bring smiles to our faces.  We had numerous colorful posts linked up last week in our weekly kids meme, It’s Playtime.  Todays post is inspired by Kate, of Picklebums.  She had fun with her kids and droppers full of paint.  They had fun creating blotted rainbows by dripping drops of watercolors, it’s an easy art project for kids.   In the last couple of weeks, there have been numerous other rainbow posts.

Colorful Pretend Cooking: I love how colorful Play Create and Explore was with her kids when they “cooked” with real foods.

Glow Stick Rainbows: Blog, Praises of a Wife and Mommy, mixed glow sticks with water beads and a light table to have bright colorful fun with her kids.

Rainbow Spaghetti: My kids love, LOVE, making a mess.  So do the kids at My Little Happies.  SHe has great ideas for messy playdates including a tub full of spaghetti!

Rainbow Sponge Painting: Jamie over at Hands on As We Grow had fun painting with sponges.  Cute!

Moms throughout the ages have given a LOT of advice.

I remember when I was in grade school my mom started exercising and drinking 8 glasses of water a day.  I can still picture that blue semi-opaque glass that was perpetually by the sink.

Drink more water!

We are excited to be a part of Mom's Pure Wisdom on Nestle Pure Life Facebook Page.  

Stop by and share some mom wisdom {or see what other moms recommend}.

Go!  I am a mom and I say so :).
