The Next Van Gogh??

For Tyler's birthday, I searched high and low for the Crayola Store in Shanghai. Luckily I found it and was able to buy crayons, eashable markers, and fingerpaints. All with the knowledge that these were non-toxic. Super important if you have been reading the paper or watching the news lately. If you think the US has problems with toxic stuff, imagine what they keep for their own citizens. Okay, maybe don't imagine. I don't want to scare away our future visitors ;)

I tried a few weeks ago to introduce Ty to the wonderful world of coloring with crayons. He was more interested in eating the crayons--glad they are non-toxic. Today I thought we would try our hand at markers. He LOVED them! Even managed to get some of the colors on the paper. I have now officially turned Peter's college dorm room table and our old IKEA coffee table into Tyler's craft tables.

Here is a pic of the big guy in action:
