Sidewalk Paint FUN

Today, I was looking on Pinterest at some things that would be fun for kids, and ran across a recipe for homemade sidewalk paint.  GENIUS!!!!  My kids LOVED it!  They loved playing in it, getting dirty, making shapes, doing hand and foot prints.  Such an easy, cheap and SUPER FUN thing for the kids.  When we were all done playing, to wash it all off, we filled up the swimming pool.


I made it in Mason jars, then poured it in to something that would be easy, and unbreakable for the kids.  Tummy Ticklers/Belly Washer (kid drinks, for those who don't know what they are) bottles are PERFECT!!!  We made blue, yellow and green.  We used up all the green.  The best thing about this, you can store it in the refrigerator, pull out in the morning of the day you want to use it, bring it to room temperature, and shake it to mix it back up, because it separates.

Hunter's little hand prints.

Mommy's hand print!  I had to join in on the fun.  This stuff is so soft, it feels good on your hands. :p

Their dirty little feet after doing footprints. 






Such determination and concentration to get the paint off his hands.  LOVE LOVE LOVE this photo of my Hunter.

"That you hand, Mommie!"

All you Mommies that read my blog, seriously, do this for your kids.  They will have a blast, as will you!!!  And the best part, it is so cheap, and you can make as little or as much as you want, because it is such a simple 1 part to 1 part recipe.
