Shaving cream fun!

Here's an idea that my sister told me about that sounds very messy, but is a lot of fun! Here is what we did. We went outside and sat around our patio table, which is made of plastic for easy clean up. I sprayed the top of the entire table with shaving cream. Then I would tell them different things in French and they would have to draw or write them. We practiced numbers, animals, body parts, and all sorts of other things.

When we were finished we just hosed down the table and that was that! If you don't have a big plastic outdoor table, you can also do this activity in a metal rectangle cake pan or something like that. Just make sure to do the activity outside so it will be easy to clean up. And since it's summertime, you can also hose off your kids if they get too dirty!
