I do worry that he will start chewing on the plastic bag but I will stay right by him, obvs, and hopefully we can have some fun with it! thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/art-projects-of-a-toddler-that-put-everythin-in-mouth#post-2161607 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 06:55:15 +0000 ValentineMommy 2161607@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cmomma17: I did that when DS was young (the paint in a plastic bag). He loved it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/art-projects-of-a-toddler-that-put-everythin-in-mouth#post-2161482 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 21:28:02 +0000 cmomma17 2161482@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>what about the projects on Pinterest where the paint is inside a sealed plastic bag? All the fun of painting but nothing too eat! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/art-projects-of-a-toddler-that-put-everythin-in-mouth#post-2161478 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 21:24:01 +0000 lady grey 2161478@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Cherrybee: great picture! This is definitely my kid if I just let him go wild!</p> <p>Although he was actually quite civilized with his yogurt paint today: </p> [attach=4871/15/nnllc2.450x600.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/art-projects-of-a-toddler-that-put-everythin-in-mouth#post-2161477 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 21:21:43 +0000 lady grey 2161477@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: @ktdid23: great idea! I didn't have any food dye but mashed up freeze dried strawberries into yogurt and LO played with that in his highchair for quite a while! I called it pink "paint" and he actually ate very little of it, ha!</p> <p>@Chuckles: @mauxie: I like the contact paper ideas, will def look into getting supplies for that. He eats dot markers too :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/art-projects-of-a-toddler-that-put-everythin-in-mouth#post-2161236 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 16:04:49 +0000 mauxie 2161236@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Contact paper and tissue squares are fun! Dot markers? Stringing things? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/art-projects-of-a-toddler-that-put-everythin-in-mouth#post-2161216 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 15:47:32 +0000 Chuckles 2161216@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What about putting pieces of tissue paper between two sheets of clear contact paper to make "stained glass." I like to cut them in the shape of butterflies. They look really cute hanging in the window and kids love helping to rip the paper. <a href="https://www.pinterest.com/yaomiao/contact-paper/" rel="nofollow">https://www.pinterest.com/yaomiao/contact-paper/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/art-projects-of-a-toddler-that-put-everythin-in-mouth#post-2161212 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 15:41:55 +0000 ktdid23 2161212@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pudding finger painting :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/art-projects-of-a-toddler-that-put-everythin-in-mouth#post-2161207 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 15:40:18 +0000 autumnlove 2161207@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yogurt finger paint! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/art-projects-of-a-toddler-that-put-everythin-in-mouth#post-2161201 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 15:36:49 +0000 Cherrybee 2161201@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just go with it..... </p> [attach=2581/15/nnl59d.450x600.FB_20150429_21_35_57_Saved_Picture.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/art-projects-of-a-toddler-that-put-everythin-in-mouth#post-2161176 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 15:13:07 +0000 lady grey 2161176@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@edelweiss: you feel my pain then! My LO loves play dough but its just no fun when he is trying to eat the whole ball of it. yuck.</p> <p>@prettylizy: what a cute idea! Im thinking I should do more food based projects so I won't be so uptight about most of it ending up in his mouth. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/art-projects-of-a-toddler-that-put-everythin-in-mouth#post-2161156 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 15:05:32 +0000 prettylizy 2161156@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our daycare just did this the other day! Spaghetti painting </p> [attach=1542/15/nnl3t8.600x600.IMG_20150428_151044.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/art-projects-of-a-toddler-that-put-everythin-in-mouth#post-2161142 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 15:00:11 +0000 edelweiss 2161142@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>my LO is like this also. i started trying with him around 1 year old, would give up after seeing the eating, and try again in a few months. at 27 months now, it's not as much of an issue but to be honest my LO doesn't seem super into drawing, so i leave it to daycare. oh, and when we brought out play doh the other week he ate it so i'm not bringing that out again anytime soon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/art-projects-of-a-toddler-that-put-everythin-in-mouth#post-2161134 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 14:57:07 +0000 lady grey 2161134@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh, I'd really love to do more art and sensory projects with my 23 mo old but he still puts EVERYTHING in his mouth. He will sit and full on eat crayons, play dough and side walk chalk. We tried to do stamping today and he kept licking the stamp pads. I don't find this very fun as I'm constantly worried he will choke or ingest too much of this (non toxic) stuff, and I'm sure its not very fun for him to have me repeating "that's not for eating" over and over.</p> <p>Any ideas? </p>
