Dirty and Clean Stations

This activity started out as some shaving cream play.  I put some shaving cream on the small table.  My little toddler enjoyed it but not for too long.  What she really enjoyed was the change from dirty to clean.  I set up a bucket next to the shaving cream table so she could rinse off since she was done playing with the shaving cream.  She loved washing up.  Once clean though, she headed right back over to the shaving cream to dirty up once again.  The process was repeated many time lasting much longer than the initial shaving cream playtime.

Next time I will try this with finger painting.  May move it outdoors though.
