An Instagram from the week that has been:
Washing the car together was the highlight of our week. The kids enjoyed cleaning, playing and getting wet; I enjoyed having a clean car and not having to sort out squabbles and complaints all morning because they were having such a good time together.
Messy play has that uncanny effect. The thought of messy play initially sends me running the other way – “But it’s MESSY! Think of the cleaning up involved.” Once I get through that initial bump and let kids have messy play, I find that most times, they play so well together and for such sustained periods of time. The clean up is well worth the effort.
Here are 3 ways to have happy messy kids from last week’s Weekly Kids’ Co-op
- Autumn Sensory Play by Organic Aspirations
- Ice cream Dough and Sprinkles by Adventures at home with Mum
- 5 Simple Sensory Bins for Babies and Toddlers by Train up a Child

Thank you so much for featuring my activity. I hope lots of other families enjoy it as well. I added a link to this post to my \”Featured On\” page, but I wanted to add your Featured button, but I can\’t seem to get it to work.
Your activity was fantastic! That’s odd that you can’t seem to add my featured button onto your page
What happens?
I paste the html, but when I preview it, there’s nothing there. Then, when I go back to the html, half of it is gone. I tried to re copy it thinking I missed something. I also erased all of the quotes and re-wrote them one by one. Sometimes that fixes things, but nothing I did worked. I know almost nothing about html, so I’m at a loss…
