Exploring with Fingerpaint!

I asked Aaron,"Where would you like me to put the paint?"After he pointed to the spot, he dived right in exploring the fingerpaint! I ask him, "What happens if you just use your thumbs? The tips of your fingers? Your knuckles? You can draw in the paint! And "erase" it, then draw again. I asked him if he would like to add another color? "You began with yellow; I wonder what would happen if yellow met orange? What will happen if the orange "tip toes" through the yellow?" Aaron said, "I think it would add another color. "He then, with his fingers moved the orange blob of paint over to visit with the yellow paint. Aaron's exploration of the fingerpaint was sensual/quiet, and he did not talk much until he made an exciting discovery, "It looks like it's turned into orange! Yellow and red make orange!" Stay tuned, next week red meets blue!
