June 11, 2010, Newsletter Issue #208: Sidewalk Painting

Tip of the Week

Instead of worrying about the mess inside, take the paint outside and relax! This sidewalk paint washes easily out of clothes and off the sidewalk and it provides endless opportunities for creativity. Dress your preschooler in old clothes that can get a little messy.


Materials needed: paintbrushes, sponges, plastic bowls, food coloring, cornstarch, water


Mix 1/4 cup of cornstarch, 1/4 cup of water, and some drops of food coloring. You can add more cornstarch or water to get the consistency you want.
