Sidewalk Chalk Paint

I have no idea how I found this last week, but it looked so cute. You take equal parts corn starch and water, then stir together and add your food coloring. Next time I will double this per color so the girls have a lot more to work with.

Amelie decided to paint her hands instead of the driveway. So that night she was rocking the Smurf hands even after washing her hands with 3 different kinds of soap. The problem? I didn’t have regular food coloring so I “thought” it would be okay to use my Wilton icing gel food coloring. So I am going to buy some regular food coloring for next time because the girls loved this activity.
