Cold weather indoor toddler activity

Ben and I have been trying to be creative with activities for D, when its just too darn cold to go outside. I find myself lately having to keep the curtains to the backyard drawn or else if she were to catch sight of her slide and other play things she will start yelling, " outside, outside!" and that would be all bad for me. We even have to avoid driving a certain route to downtown  because it goes right past one of her favorite parks.
 So over the weekend we picked up some WASHABLE paints and decided to have a little art project in the garage.

As you can tell this pic was early in the morning and my coffee made the shot

I, of course got messy too!
