Make this fun spray chalk with your kids! Super easy too.
Have kids who love drawing outside with chalk? Now you can add to the fun by mixing some “chalk” spray. The ingredients include tempera paint, hot water, dishwashing soap, and cornstarch—you just mix them all together and put them in spray bottles with different colors. Let your kids have at it and they’ll have so much fun making designs. It’s a lot less messy than actual chalk!
I am a think-outside-the-box crafter and DIY’er and today I am here to show you a summer fun idea to do with your kidlets. I love chalk. It is so fun to watch my kids make designs on our driveway. But it is sooooo messy, isn’t it? Besides the guaranteed bath after chalk time you also have to do a load of laundry. Well here is a pretty mess-free solution to your child’s creativity. Spray Chalk!
CHALK SPRAY SUPPLIES:
2. Add one teaspoon of washable tempura paint and a quirt of dishwashing liquid. Mix well.
3. Pour it into your squirt bottles and shake well. Watch your kids enjoy making designs and pictures on your driveway. I always spray my driveway down when we are done. After you let your spray sit a while it will separate. Shake it really well before you use it each time.
