One of the nice things about having David in school is that sometimes he comes home with fun activities that he, Isaac, and I can all do together. Today was one of those days. We made paint using sidewalk chalk, water, and white glue. It comes out looking a bit like old-fashioned tempera paint.
To do this activity, put a piece of colored sidewalk chalk in a zippered plastic bag. Place it on top of some newspaper and then crush it with a hammer until it is powdered. Put the powder in a plastic cup. Mix with 6 tablespoons of water. Then add 1 tablespoon of white glue and mix. Your paint is then ready to use!
