spreading silliness

Inspired by the book, sneaky art and this surprise stone family spotted in our Ann Arbor catching fireflies courtyard this August, I decided it would be fun to spread some smiles of our own during our stay South Haven.

After sunset we headed to the local Walmart and picked up a few black and white paint pens. sneaky art silly stones

We spent the rest of the evening giving these stones some silly personalities and also wrote little messages on the back.

Whenever we walk in town, we grab a handful of these stones and place them in different spots so they can be found by kids and adults of all ages who could use a little giggle.family vacation activities

This has been such a fun project and I hope to start making it our family beach vacation tradition. It’s funny how something so simple can make someone’s day brighter.
