Rookie Mistake

Question: Should my children* be left without adult supervision while they do a craft involving acrylic paint?

Answer: No.

*Picture of female child unavailable due to convulsive laughter on her part and reluctance on my part to reinforce the idea that her body suit of pink and brown was funny. (Note male child's appropriately serious facial expression.)

Yes, I can see how it could be alarming to look at! Although if he actually did have bloody gashes across his chest, I probably wouldn't have paused for a picture...

The cleanup was okay--I got it right away, so it just wiped up. With Mitch's white handkerchief. (He was not impressed.)
