Sidewalk Paint

Need an idea to do with your kids this summer to keep them busy? Try sidewalk paint! All you need is water, cornstarch, food coloring, and a container (I used a muffin tin).

Combine 2 tablespoons water + 2 tablespoons cornstarch + a few drops of food coloring to each muffin tin.

My kids loved seeing the colors change and watching what happens when we add different colors. Stir with paintbrush or spoon until the cornstarch is dissolved and the food coloring is all mixed in.

Give each child a paint brush and let them go to town on your sidewalk!
It is washable, non toxic, and a lot of fun!
