Homemade Sidewalk Paint

I saw this recipe for sidewalk paint on Pinterest and the boys and i tried it out on Saturday morning.

       Homemade Sidewalk Paint:

• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 4 tablespoons water
• 6-8 drops of food coloring

 Elijah had fun measuring everything out and mixing it up.

 Our colors! 

Everything's more fun when you get to use a paint brush!

 I had to tell Ethan not to paint the kittens a time or two. =)

 It would also work well on car windows since it washes off so easily.

You Guessed It!

You ALL got the right answer on yesterdays mystery photo!

Play Dough!

Elijah and I broke out the play dough!

I had to laugh when I read Simple Beauty's comment guessing it to be "very FRESH playdough!!" It was indeed very fresh. I'm not sure how long it will look this nice and bright though.

But for today a brand new set of bright colorful play dough kept the little man occupied for hours. Brittany, you were "spot on" in your guess when you added "I bet you put it through that little push-down playdough tool that makes it grow like hair or spaghetti, too!" You should have heard Elijah. "I'm making noooodles, mommy!" He loved it. And I as usual took way to many pictures. I was just having a good time with the bright colors and fun shapes.


And of course Elijah had to demonstrate how the shape press can always double as a gun in a pinch...


That was fun. Maybe i'll give ya'll another mistery photo. But next time i'll really stump ya!
