Saving it for a sunny day

It was pretty rainy and dreary today, and I resorted to opening our new package of Moon Sand in order to keep Sylvie occupied. She loved it, and had so much fun making shapes and animals and just feeling the texture of the sand in her hands. But as I had been warned, it was messy. So very messy. This shirt went right into the wash this afternoon.





For now the moon sand has been packed away. We'll save it for the next sunny day and make it a nice fun OUTDOOR activity.

What pretty hands! I know she must have enjoyed playing with the sand, but you're right, it's better if she has it outside......that way you can just shake everything off!

ugh! moon sand. hate the stuff! i think i was probably one of the ones who warned you about it after making the mistake of opening some up for the girl at my kitchen table one night! the dogs were eating it! because, afterall, they think anything that drops from sylvie while she's at the kitchen table is edible. and how those puppies LOVE when Syl is at that table! yeah, moon sand is definitely an outdoorsy thing.
