How to make home made paint!

Ever worry this will happen with your little one

MmmMmm Paint

It's tough to find toddler safe paint, and even then there are still questionable ingredients... Well why not make your own it's super easy, and cheap!

What you need:

1 cup four

1 cup water

food coloring

paint brushes (optional)

and of course paper (or whatever you want to paint)

Paper plates, bowls, baby food jars... whatever you're wanting to put your mixture in.

Mix one cup of water with one cup of flour and stir.  Make sure you get all the lumps out.

Then separate X amount of mixture onto plates (I used bowls the first time, then half of it ended up mixed together cause he's 20 months old separation doesn't matter to him, so I went with paper plates for easy clean up)

Pour food coloring til you get desired color and... PRESTO baby safe paint!

The first time I did it I thought it looked too runny, so I added a little more flour, it made for great texture for the picture frames we were painting, it looked very artsy, but it can get clumpy, the recipe works a little better for just painting.
