That's a great tip about laying down a tablecloth! It's so true that preparation is key - it really helps to have everything ready and accessible when you're encouraging messy play because it can so quickly escalate! I also keep a spare box of go-to supplies at hand, stored high up so they're out of my toddler's reach but readily available for these occasions. Sometimes I'll sneak some non-messy snacks in there too, to buy myself some extra time once the initial excitement wears off!
