My girls love to paint on anything they can and that includes the sidewalks surrounding our house. The recipe for this paint couldn’t be simpler: 1/4 cup cornstarch mixed with 1/4 cup of water and some food coloring. Super simple and tons of fun!
When the paint dries it looks just like it would if it was drawn with sidewalk chalk and it washes away with water!
I LOVE this! If we ever have a dry day again I'm definitely going to try this out.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like so much fun (not to mention easy). Thanks for sharing...now to brave up enough to let the boys have at it! LOL!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool effect it leaves! This is a project we need to do.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the idea! My daughter would love this!
ReplyDeleteHow cool! I am so trying this for my three kids - my youngest especially LOVES to paint on the ground!

I’d love it if you popped over and had a look at mine too, and perhaps followed?
Thanks!

I just did this with my 2 year old! She loved it! Next time I'll add more dye, the colors were muted. She didn't care though!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to try this soon! My boys would love it!
