Sidewalk chalkin'

So, on the wonderful pinterest I found sidewalk chalk PAINT.  I doctored the recipe a little b/c I couldn't find my measuring spoon, but it's basically cornstarch, water, and food coloring.  I watered mine down quite a bit to make it easier to paint with, and the kids had a blast!  We painted a while and then discovered it was even MORE fun to pour it into small liquid-solid puddles side by side and blow on it to swirl the colors.   My kids were fascinated that it poured like a liquid but felt like a solid!  Enjoy! 

Oh, here's the original post I saw:  http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/how-to-make-sidewalk-chalk-pai-84828
