We both have daughters of almost the exact same age and are in parallel making the journey through raising kids in a nerdier than average household. I have a small box of random minis and bits that I dug out to see if my kiddo would want to take a crack at painting. No surprise really, of course she was thrilled. Two and a half year olds don&#8217;t need much encouragement to apply paint to any surface that isn&#8217;t paper. I globed out a few primary colors for her plus some green and just let her go to town. I would say, the whole experience was a wild success! Really, kids just want to do whatever their parents are doing.<\/p>\n<p>Looks like weeknight mini painting sessions are literally back on the table!<\/p>\n<div data-carousel-extra='{\"blog_id\":1,\"permalink\":\"https:\\\/\\\/lostdice.com\\\/index.php\\\/2016\\\/10\\\/29\\\/mini-painting-minis\\\/\",\"likes_blog_id\":116980463}' id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-418 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/lostdice.com\/index.php\/2016\/10\/29\/mini-painting-minis\/29986091594_c6148fb506_o\/'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/lostdice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/29986091594_c6148fb506_o-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-419\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lostdice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/29986091594_c6148fb506_o-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/lostdice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/29986091594_c6148fb506_o-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lostdice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/29986091594_c6148fb506_o-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lostdice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/29986091594_c6148fb506_o-1024x1024.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" data-attachment-id=\"419\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/lostdice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/29986091594_c6148fb506_o.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"2446,2446\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.2&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;iPhone 6&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1477592573&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;4.15&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;250&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.05&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;keywords&quot;:&quot;Array&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"mini painting minis\" data-image-description=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/lostdice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/29986091594_c6148fb506_o-300x300.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/lostdice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/29986091594_c6148fb506_o-1024x1024.jpg\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-419'>\n\t\t\t\tCeci painting minis.\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/lostdice.com\/index.php\/2016\/10\/29\/mini-painting-minis\/29983994083_2fccb28c3b_o\/'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/lostdice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/29983994083_2fccb28c3b_o-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-420\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lostdice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/29983994083_2fccb28c3b_o-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/lostdice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/29983994083_2fccb28c3b_o-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lostdice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/29983994083_2fccb28c3b_o-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lostdice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/29983994083_2fccb28c3b_o-1024x1024.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" data-attachment-id=\"420\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/lostdice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/29983994083_2fccb28c3b_o.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"2448,2448\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.2&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;iPhone 6&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1477593607&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;4.15&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;250&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.058823529411765&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;keywords&quot;:&quot;Array&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"my mini&#8217;s minis\" data-image-description=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/lostdice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/29983994083_2fccb28c3b_o-300x300.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/lostdice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/29983994083_2fccb28c3b_o-1024x1024.jpg\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-420'>\n\t\t\t\tMy mini&#8217;s minis.\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Bill&#8217;s last post\u00a0talking about purchasing the Age of Sigmar &#8211; Storm of Sigmar\u00a0boxed set inspired me to paint with my kiddo as well.
