The days that are warm enough for outdoor craft activities are quickly disappearing, but we were able to squeeze in some driveway art classes. 1 part cornstarch + 1 part water + a few drops food coloring = cheap sidewalk paint.
Rowan was completely bored with the process, but the big kids enjoyed mixing up the recipe all by themselves.
ready, set, PAINT!
Many much stick figures, living together in harmony…
Crack shot. She’s totally outgrown these jeans, hence the über-crack, but I made her wear them because I don’t care if they get stained.
Rowan watched the kids as they changed the driveway from a boring slab of grey concrete to a high-definition mural. The chin bubbles must mean she approves.
Drew knows what to do when being shot. Nice cheese Scoob!
We thought this paint was better than the crayola brand. Just watch out – when the cornstarch dries it does make surfaces kinda slick. Drew has a fat-lip to prove it!
What a great idea…as usual. I love the colors! I also really love the bum-crack shot. Those are the best!
I am totally doing this with my kids! The colors are so bright! Thanks for sharing the reciepe. I love the picture of all three of your kids togther, such cuties! Drew looks like he is concentrating on getting it just right.
Awesome! Did the paint show up well on the sidewalk? I hope there is a day left warm enough for us to try it!
