Want to encourage art, but without a difficult to clean up mess? Here's a simple recipe to make fingerpaint for the bathtub. It won't stain and is made with soap! (we introduce color mixing this way, through this song)
2 T dish soap
1 T cornstarch (arrowroot powder works too)
1 drop food coloring
Mix all together and voila! Super simple.

Idea 1
Letter: "W" (create a wave of blue paint to visually show it)
Words: wave, water, wash, wipe.
Color: Blue (it made the water blue and we talked about the ocean and such)
Animal: Turtle (we chose this because it went along with our fingerplay song--see below)
Song/Fingerplay: Tim the Tiny Turtle
Yoga Asanas: Turtle, waterfall, shark, otter, fish, frog, dolphin, boat, alligator
Idea 2
Letter: "B" (create two bubbles on top of eachother for letter visual)
Words: Bubbles, boat, beach, bath
Song: Row, Row Your Boat
Yoga Asana: Boat
