Homemade Sidewalk Chalk

by Sharon Kruschen on May 17th, 2016 | 2 Comments »

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.

Homemade Sidewalk Chalk

Ingredients

Cornstarch
Food coloring
Water
Paint brush
Egg container*/muffin tin

Note: I like to keep our used egg containers for projects like these. Plus it's an easy way to clean up!

Directions

Place 2 tbsp of cornstarch in a few sections (depends on how many colors you'd like to make).
Place 2 tbsp of water on the same sections.
Drop 3-5 drops of food coloring (depends on how vibrant you want each color).

Paint on sidewalk.

What is your favorite summer craft?
