Welcome to Pink Dolphins and Blue Monkeys

We just have too much fun around here to let it slip by. I like to document the things my kids love most. Well, like pink dolphins and blue monkeys and painting, days at the park, fun foods, even tea parties. My hope is that you find some joy and inspiration.

Printing Flowers with Celery Hearts



I made a soup the other night and I was left with this great big celery heart that I didn't use.  I did hear on Dr. Oz once that the heart of the celery (or any vegetable) is where all the best nutrients are.  We decided to use all those good nutrients for the sake of art this time!  

The kids had a great time picking up this big vegetable and stamping it into paint and then their paper.  Like a lot of stamping projects; it's low mess and can produce A LOT of art quickly!   


 Here are our stamped hearts looking like pretty roses.  (Caleb picked blue).


The pretty celery heart ready to be stamped! 
We used our stamped celery to make cards for teachers and friends!
