Declan's infatuation with "snail slobber" led to his idea to paint snail trails. Declan procured a piece of cardboard, and then carefully painted some colourful snail shells (Declan ensured no snails were hurt in this project by looking inside each shell that he found in his Mom-Mom's yard). Once his snail shells were dry, he experimented with making trails for each snail. He used his finger and numerous sized brushes to create trails of varying widths. While painting with his finger he exclaimed "Mommy, I'm moving my finger slowly like a snail!"
