Sidewalk Paint

Today, I decided to make some sidewalk paint for my son since he keeps using so much chalk (mostly because he wants to make the colors brighter than they are). That's when I found this recipe for sidewalk paint, YES!, made me his favorite parent.

Be sure to use a lot of the paint on the brush for the best color. We'll definitely be doing this again, it's inexpensive, easy peasy, and creative--my kind of fun. Here's the recipe if you want to give it a try.


Supplies

• 1 part cornstarch (1 c.)
• 1 part water (1 c.)
• food coloring (we used neon colors)
• sponge brushes

Directions

1. Mix corn starch and water.
2. Add food coloring and mix.

*I used a muffin tin for extra large muffins to hold the paint. One cup of cornstarch and one cup of water filled them about half way. The paint stretched further than I thought. I also included a sponge brush for each color--just simpler.
