- 1/2 cup cornstarch
- 1/2 cup cold water
- Paintbrush
- Small jar with lid
- Food coloring (approx. 12-14 drops) or add more for desired color
1. In a jar mix together the cornstarch, cold water and food coloring. Place the lid tightly and shake until the contents are uniformly mixed.
2. Use a paintbrush to make fun designs on the sidewalks. To wash the paint off, simply spray the area with water.
