Puffy Paint
2 cups Salt
2 cups Water
2 cups Flour
Food coloring or Tempera paints
Mix water, salt and flour together. This recipe
can be doubled or tripled if needed. Add food
coloring or tempera paint to mixture until desired
color is obtained.
Spoon the colored mixture into squeeze bottles.
Have the children squeeze the mixture onto a thick
paper plate or piece of cardboard. Have enough
colors of the puffy paint available so that they
can mix the colors. Let their creations dry
overnight on a flat surface. When this dries
it is rock hard and the salt sparkles.
