Rock Painting!

      Awhile back, Wyatt saw a book at the Library about painting on rocks, and he REALLY wanted to give it a try. So, we planned a hike at one of our favorite areas that has a river and a trail that runs along it that has a ton of the size rock we were looking for. I didn't manage to get any pictures of our actual rock collecting... mostly because I forgot my camera and my phone battery is evil... but I did get pictures of our painting and our beautiful rocks!

Here is the book we used. There are quite a few ideas in here, I went with the fish design and the bug design since they seemed somewhat simple, and the boys would like those. 

Here are some pictures of the painting in action!

Here are our results! The blue/red fish Wade did, and he called it a Night Salmon, the teal/yellow fish was by Wyatt and it's his Summer Trout! :-) The other one's are my demonstrations... lol!

The bugs turned out great too! The purple/green one is mine, the one with the purple/yellow/orange is Wade's and the light colored one on the right is Wyatt's. I drew on the eyes, mouths and antennae. 

Here are all their rocks! The last picture is all the rocks we collected on our hike! Lots of fun!
