Fizzing fun

Want to make your homemade sidewalk paint really pop this year? Kids Activities offers up this nifty idea for making homemade sidewalk paint that fizzes!

To make your own sidewalk paint, you’ll need to assemble cornstarch, baking soda, warm — almost hot — water and food coloring. Once your pint-sized Picassos are busy painting their sidewalk masterpieces, fill a spray bottle with vinegar and let them spray away for plenty of magical fizzing fun. The very best part about this activity: Mom Rachel says, “This paint dries very quickly — but washes off with ease!” Gotta love that.
