Reindeer Painting

When I was in elementary school, I had a great teacher who let us do these reindeer paintings on sweatshirts. Since then I have carried out the idea with little ones that I babysat for or at various teaching jobs. The reindeer painting has now become one of Ryder and my traditions. We did it for the first time last year when he was 10 months old, and I thought that his hand and foot were so big then. However, when we did it this year I was in for a huge shock. His hands and feet are ENORMOUS! Last year he didn't like the feeling of the paint on his little hands or feet, but he was all about it this year and really wanted to paint his mommy, too.
