I loved some of these creative ways to paint and print with found and natural objects from last weeks It’s Playtime!
Paint on the Ceiling showed us how to print with fruit and vegetables– so simple and effective!
Share and Remember describes making art on a large piece of fabric with coloured ice cubes!
Putti Prapancha shows us how to use simple straws to create beautiful flower and star prints!
And Dimples and Giggles reminds us that the best fun of all is wonderful finger painting!

Thank you for the kind comments on my blog. It helps to know that I am not alone. Being a Mum without your Mum is very difficult and sad, but I suppose there are much worse situations families can be in. In some ways its made me a better Mum, as I often think my Mum is watching over us so I make better choices that she would approve of. Silly really.

Oh, wow! I feel honored to be featured among this Playtime community! There are always so many wonderful ideas. Thanks for the wonderful compliment and for doing this link up each week.
Love the colored ice! We need to do this again!,
I just LOVE the posts you chose to feature! We need to try the colored ice!
OOOppppsss I don’t know why my link it’s showing 3 times!!! Sorry about that…Too many great activities to try with the little one….Thanks!
all so simple but yet so hard!
i do love the ice cubes though! will try those – mine will probably come out black!
Haha, NONSENSE! they would not 🙂 Printing with fruit and veggies is REALLy easy and the only obstacle is the paint (if you have mess issues!) do it outside maybe 😉
Hi Anna, thanks for featuring my ice cube painting! It was so fun. I’m not new to your blog but can’t keep up with following all of them so just saw this now! Following you on Facebook & Twitter now though. Thanks again!
Sorry, I linked up twice. For some reason I couldn’t access my photo with the first link up, so I linked again. Hope that’s okay? (no. 102 and 103)
Georgia 🙂
