Today was beautiful, a rare perfect 72 degrees. We spent most of the day at the park with some friends, but in the afternoon we celebrated by mixing up some chalk paint and decorating our sidewalks.
Our supplies
cornstarch, tablespoon, muffin tin, liquid water colors, popsicle sticks, cold water, brushes *food coloring can be used in place of liquid watercolors |
Step 1: scoop approximately 2T of cornstarch in each muffin tin
Step 3: add several drops of liquid watercolor or food coloring
Step 4: stir mixture until it is smooth
we had a lot fun mixing colors and trying to achieve the "perfect" shades |
Step 5: paint
sauropods were, or course, big buddy's favorite thing to paint |
Or pull a Mini Man and squeeze.
My kids are a bit too old for this now, wish I would have known how to do this when they were little. I will pass this along to my sis who has little kids! pippa
