The Foot Book

Today we read The Foot Book by Dr. Seuss and Little Man really liked it. We read it together and then he "read" it a couple times by himself.


So I decided to try to get Little Man's footprints on paper and write some of the words from the book on it.

Little Man was apprehensive about sticking his feet in paint!! We stripped him down to his skivvy's!

He was watching as Daddy poured paint into a box.
We had to do it about 3 times before we were satisfied with the first footprint, we learned that we had to get some of the excess paint off before we put it on the paper. So we had him step onto a dry part of the box first.


We did his feet two different colors.


Once the paint was dry I wrote "Left foot. Right foot. Feet. Feet. Feet. Oh, the feet you meet!" My handwriting isn't that great but I'm still happy with how it turned out!



I forgot to take a picture of it before I put it up on his wall so I just snapped one really quick while Little Man was asleep!
