Chalk Paint
Materials:
- 1-2 cups corn starch
- 1-2 cups water
- An old or disposable muffin tin
- Sponge paintbrushes
- Food coloring
Directions:
- Place 2 tablespoons corn starch into one cup of the muffin tin.
- Pour 2 tablespoons water on top of the corn starch.
- Add 4 drops food coloring (any color) to the muffin tin. Stir well.
- Repeat for each color you would like to make. (Note: This would be a good time to teach the children about mixing colors. Ex. they can make orange by mixing red and yellow).
- Give each child a foam paintbrush and head outside to paint on the driveway or sidewalk.
