Homemade Sidewalk Chalk
Every day after nap my three old and I do some type of craft. This week we made homemade sidewalk chalk. Sidewalk chalk is super easy to make and is not very expensive. Next time your child want to do a craft, reach in your cupboard and get some corn starch and food coloring, it is really that easy.
