This week's color over at Project 64 is pacific blue. Unlike some of the other colors, I saw this color a lot. Here are a few possibilities.
We have a lot of Thomas items in our house, what with two young boys.
One of our egg-decorating masterpieces.
I liked this idea in theory, as there is a lot of pacific blue in the basket, the bowl of carrots, and some of the goodies in the basket. However, the lighting was poor and I needed to get the basket hidden so there was no time to play.
Here is the photo I'm submitting for the challenge this week.
This is my son after finding his cache of eggs today; each of the five kids picks one color so everyone gets a fair shake at finding them. This is especially important when the kids' ages range from not quite three up to eleven. I knew that the blue eggs that we'd be hiding were pacific blue, but I had no idea that he'd be the child who'd be finding the blue eggs and that his vest would coordinate fairly well with both the eggs he collected and the bag he used to hold them. Happy Easter!
Great pacific blue finds! Love the eggs! Thanks for linking up!
ReplyDeleteHow fun and clever to have them choose colors.
ReplyDeleteI love how intent he is on getting them open.
great photos, love the idea of each kid getting a different color egg, ingenious.
ReplyDeleteGreat finds for pacific blue, and I love your idea of each kid having a color for their eggs. Might have to borrow that one. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat idea for making egg hunting not a vicious affair. Love the match of vest and eggs!
ReplyDelete@Side by Side, Debi, Danelle and Scrappy Grams--I came up with this idea years ago when my now 7.5 year old was a toddler competing with her cousins' cousins who were 7 and 8 years older than her. The kids love having their own color and even wind up helping each other find the eggs if there are particularly tough eggs to find. It's cut down on the whining and tears.
ReplyDeleteCertainly no shortage of pacific blue at your house this week! Looks like blue was the preferred egg color. ;-)
ReplyDeleteGreat blue finds and I too will steal (more like borrow) this idea. With a 10, 7 and 4 year old, Easter can start out with a bit of a war on our hands!
ReplyDeleteGreat blue photo! I love the idea of letting each kid have a color, that's a great way of keeping it fair! I'll keep that in mind!
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures. I especially love the last picture with your son and all of his eggs. What a great idea giving each child one color of the eggs to find.
ReplyDeleteI, too, love the idea of each child having their own color egg!! Fantastic picture too!! I love his little tongue out!! :D
