Painting the sidewalk

Last week, the after school group made sidewalk paint using 1/2 cup cornstarch, 1/2 cup water, and 8 drops of food coloring. We learned about mixing colors, combining blue and green to make turquoise, blue and red to make purple and red and yellow to make orange. Then, we took our paint to the playground to create art on our blacktop! The kids had lots of fun painting their names and other designs outside!
