Shaving Cream Delights

We love messy play. Especially when the sun is shining and we can be outside.
We borrowed (stole) some of Daddy's shaving cream and had lots of fun and giggles!
I sprayed about half a can of shaving cream on the table outside and let Master E and Miss M go wild!


Looking at what the shaving cream looked like when it came out of the can.



Tentative touching. There was lots of talk of messy and sticky!

Miss M decided to have a little smell and taste. She wasn't too keen on that and didn't try it again.


Master E getting right into it now. Loving pushing the cream around the table and squeezing it through his fingers.

Scratching his fingers through and making lots of stripes. One of his current favourite things to do.

Having lots of fun!


When they were starting to get a bit bored we added a couple of drops of green food colouring. This increased their interest for awhile longer.

When the green got a bit boring we added a couple of drops of red food colouring making an interesting mix of green and pink.

Trying out something new spirals.


This was a great activity and lots of fun was had. We had wash basins of water and towels ready for the clean up.

Enjoy!

  1. My boys love this one - squirting it onto a tarp on the lawn is great too. Let them slide around in it - and I love the smell of shaving cream.
