Homemade Paints

We decided to try out some homemade, edible paints from The Imagination Tree.

* 2 cups of corn flour
* 1 cup of cold water
* 4.5 cups of boiling water
* Liquid food colouring

Mix the cornflour with the cold water and stir together. Pour in the boiling water and stir between each cup. We then separated it into individual pots before adding colouring. Ours haven't turned out as thick as they perhaps should have done, but they look like a good consistencyt for painting on the patio outside!

Mixing and stirring and pouring and measuring... and bunny ears essential!

We used some old finger paint pots to store our edible paints.

Bee was quite interested in tearing up her paper as well as painting on it!
