It's a Birthday Ball!

Today's treehouse activity was getting to plan a masquerade ball/birthday party for one of our friends. 

We had a blast painting our own masks for the masquerade ball.

    Here, Isabella is drawing and coloring a "pin the tail on the my little pony" for one of our party games.

We love to play in the dramatic play center as some of our favorite characters from Disney Channel's KC undercover.

It's cool to save Money!

We had such a fun time, today, at the treehouse. Like most days, we played four corners, as well as hide and seek, which we love to do. "It's cool to save money!" so we also got to color and put together our very own piggy bank. 

Here, we are coloring our piggy banks, before we put them together.

Lailah and Gabriel are finished coloring and ready to tape all the sides to complete their piggy banks.

These are our piggy banks. Now all that is needed to complete them, is some money to go inside!

Keepin' it Cool!

Water play is very popular here at the Treehouse. It's the perfect way to cool off on these hot summer days. Here's how we keep it cool! Don't forget to wear sunscreen! :)

A field trip to the Smyrna Splash Pad!

Water play every Tuesday at the Treehouse!

Puffy Paint!

What happens when you find shaving cream, glue, and liquid water colors in the same room? You mix it all together and make PUFFY PAINT!

We love painting with puffy paint at the treehouse. It's a great way to be creative, using something other than regular watercolors.

It's even better when it dries, because it makes our masterpieces feel like cotton when you touch them. It's so cool! 

Here's how you make it:

Add a generous amount of shaving cream into a bowl. Add three tablespoons of white liquid glue. Then add liquid water color paint. Mix the ingredients together until it turns into a "whipped cream" like substance and VOILA...puffy paint! :)

***You can also use food coloring if you don't have liquid paint. 

Enjoy!
