Cake Smashes, Finger Paintings, and coloring paper flowers with food coloring. Those are the type of things many children do that make us bring out the tough fighters. Germ fighters that is. We were invited to a fun Birthday Cake Smash event with Bounty paper towels. Mother and author, Kristin Cavallari and all the sweet kids got to create so many messes without us parents having to worry about the clean-up!
Next Station was the handprint making station. Set up some colors on a paper plate, have your child squish their hand all in it and print onto a clean white paper. It was such an adorable memory to create, especially since my daughter has never liked hand or finger painting because she doesn’t like the feeling. Thankfully I caught her hands right before she rubbed her shirt. Could you guess how I cleaned her up?
Last station before the funnest part of the night was the Paper flower coloring. We grabbed a pre-made Bounty paper towel rose, which was tied together with pipe cleaner, and grabbed some colored droppers. These paper towels are extremely absorbent (2x more absorbent vs. the leading ordinary brand), so you only needed on little drop to make big colored spots. Why not make a few to decorate the pictures for a messy cake smash?
Yes! My 3.5 year old got to create a new Cake Smash memory that didn’t end in horror faces and cries! We grabbed the cake that Gabs decorated at the start of the party, stood her next to a highchair, and smooshed our hands in the cake. Made for a pretty, picture perfect shot.
Overall, Bounty completely understands that life is made up of many “messy firsts”, seconds and even thirds. Due to Bounty absorbing the messes quickly, you can enjoy the moment and not the mess. Bounty is always around in our home to clean up the messes so that us parents can enjoy those memorable moments that truly only happen once per child. I’m happy to call Bounty a household favorite!
