I've been brainstorming things that I can try to do with Adam that are new and exciting and creative. One thing I hadn't done yet was crayons. We busted them out a couple of weeks ago and this is what happened.
So, I guess I would have to deem it a success seeing as creativity was my goal.
P.S. Does anyone have any ideas on fun creative things to do with a 15 month old in a home that doesn't have a yard to get messy in??

Play dough? Have you tried that yet? My friend has some and bought a few kits that have little arms, legs, face, etc. parts to put in it to make people. And such.
Floam? Ever heard of it? Sortof like play dough, I saw a huge container of several different colors at Costco.
Look for Wikki Stix at Bed, Bath,& Beyond. Bendable like pipe cleaners, but waxy feeling. They aren't messy and could even be run through the washer! I'm totally going to get some for Wy when he's older, a few people have recommended them for places like airplanes and restaurants.
Another kid - that is always fun for everyone:-)
Playdough is great, the park is great, pots and pans are fun and noisy, the bathtub is always a great time. My mom has a little playschool slide that Tyler climbs by himself and turns around and slides down, he loves that. His favorite toy right now is a ball and anything he can hit it with (a spoon, a stick, a toothbrush, a toy mallet) - loads of fun in the kitchen while I am making dinner.
How about sidewalk chalk? Bubbles? Finger Paint? Playdough is good, but they don't really know what to do with it at that age...Weston is just now starting to cut shapes out. I have "recipes" for edible playdough and finger paints (since at 15 months everything goes in their mouths). Also it was around that age that Weston really started to want to help Mommy cook. Usually I only do it when I am baking, because I am too paranoid about him burning himself.
Come hang out with your neighbors kids? ;o)
