Okay.............so how cute are they? Totally adorable. Everyone loves to have their face painted and become someone else. Even if you stay yourself - the face paint is like a temporary tattoo that fancies you up without the permanance. However, there is a dark side to face painting...........Duhn Duhn Duuuhhhnnnnnnnnnnnnnn.....
What? How could that be? Look how cute this little man is - sitting there, holding still for something (which in itself is amazing). Looking so peaceful, hopeful and happy......Yes.......however, after having experienced Face Painting, after having had many people tell him how darn cute he was, after being so proud to be a Blue Tiger........
He did THIS with his paints...........
and he did THIS with his markers!!..............
BigGuy found himself impressed with the marker rendition of the Blue Tiger. He looks like he truly attempted whiskers and managed to succeed - in a way.
And This is why FacePainting should be Illegal. No, no, no, don't try to blame an inattentive parent. When he did the marker thing he was sitting at my feet coloring a character in a book - secretly coloring his face - maybe I wansn't looking at him, but hey, he was at my FEET!!!!! I wasn't worried. I know it is all suggestion of experience made when he had his Face Painted!!

So then I wonder why Monkey at naptime, at school, who has never had his face painted, took a green marker and covered most of his face, neck, hands, and arms? He did it very quietly, and sneakily, also, and his teacher just kept apologizing. I told her that he can be quite stealth, and not to worry about it. She said that she scrubbed him for about 15 minutes trying to get it all off. He was tinged slightly green until bathtime when we scrubbed some more.
perhaps he read this blog and he learned by example? he is a cleaver little man.
