Bathtub Soap


I have always been curious how long Aurora would play in the bath if given her druthers.  So last week when highs were in the single digits I let her go to town.  Aurora spent two generous hours in the bathtub.  One hour painting.  One hour splashing in a bubble bath.  I had to warm the water up three times! 


To make bathtub paints combine

1 T liquid baby soap
1 ½ t corn starch
½ t water
a couple drops of food coloring

Ta da – bathtub paints!



Aurora painted the tub.  She painted the walls.  She painted her self.  She giggled and giggled and giggled.  


When we filled the tub with warm water and bubbles the bath water turned green.
