What "creative" type activities do you do with your 18-24 month old?

Kieran is 20 months old, and it's occurred to me recently that I don't do enough artsy creative type stuff with him. We play together a lot, but it's always with his toys and just each other, talking, singing, dancing, whatever. A couple times I've set up finger paint or markers and paper to do with him, which he likes, but I can't think of other things to do with him. What does everyone else do with their creative toddlers?

put rice or beans in between two paper plates to make a shaky toy and then color and decorate it and then we run around the house making lots of noise! Chat Icon

DS is obsessed with foam stickers. His nanny does finger painting with him too. He likes coloring.
