Earth Day at Anthropologie!

Saturday afternoon, while shopping at Anthropologie, we discovered they were having an Earth Day craft activity for children!  The girls were invited to paint ocean scenes using watercolors. The Anthropologie employees were so sweet to the girls, chatting away with them as they painted.
Then Ellie and Abby were treated to ocean blue jello (with candy fish swimming in it) snacks and got to keep their watercolor paint sets!   What a fun surprise in the middle of our shopping!

Their finished paintings!
The coral behind them was made of bubble wrap and other plastic packing materials -- it was fascinating to look at up close!  Ellie wants to re-create some of the bubble wrap starfish this summer.
