After (I couldn't get them in the right order...sorry!)
Before
And here's the tools of the trick
Since Mia is still trying to learn about coloring only on paper, I found a new trick. Put a little toothpaste on the artwork and let sit for 5 minutes. Brush with a damp toothbrush and then wipe off with a damp cloth (you might have to scrub a little with the cloth). Easy! Now I will start on the other walls...

have you ever tried a mr. clean magic eraser? they are amazing. it looks like the toothpaste worked wonders, though. good work-- for you and mia.
wow! leave it to colgate and a SOFT (I hope) toothbrush to do the trick. I will have to remember that one in a couple years... :)
I am just catching up...love the orange apple jacks - that is kind of different - its not like the marshmellows in the lucky charms or anything. I saw the same 9/11 doc and I loved it. Everyone else seemed to be watching the fake doc - which I caught and was sad. I couldn't believe their were so many f-bombs, but it was very touching. Was I talking on the phone to you today when she painted the wall? You might want to splurge for the Mr.Clean sponge thing - it works every time, but the toothpaste thing is good too. Toodles.
Love the home remedy to clean it up! Thanks for the tip.
Rylee used a pink highlighter yesterday.. nice! Guess they weren't up high enough.
I love the art work wall. It's very beautiful!
tricycle 411: ours is a radio flyer that we purchased for about $40 at target. it is awesome. oliver loves it. we now go for bike "rides" everyday. the parent handle can steer the thing, and it has a cruising mode, so when i push it, the pedals don't spin. it is the best!
