Is it just me?

Or does it seem odd that at daycare, they don’t stop children from coloring on themselves with marker? Even if it is washable, should the kids be doing this? We have face paint at home. We have body stamps. Those are acceptable, but both of my girls KNOW they are not to use markers. And then yesterday, Luna stamped herself at daycare. She made herself a bracelet, she stamped her hands, her stomach, her arms, and her face. The one teacher told us that "I drew the line at stamping on her stomach" Great. Thanks. Oh and it happened to be PERMANENT marker. Lovely

I googled and found that sunscreen (especially the spray stuff) helps. I did that several times and then dumped her in the bath. It is mostly gone with a few fade marks. Grrrrrr

 Why oh WHY does daycare allow them to use markers on their skin?
