Frozen chalk
Are your kids out of school for the summer yet?
Mine just graduated from preschool.
Ive spent the last few days in a bittersweet wonder of where time has gone.
Our first summer day activity was thisFizzy Frozen DIY Chalk Paint.
Thisfrozen chalkis such a fun way for kids to get creative and paint with a fun summer twist.
Give it a quick, thorough mix.
Slowly add the water.
You want the mixture to be thick but not too thick.
I would explain it as a watery paste.
ensure to mix well so that all the ingredients are incorporated together.
When youve reached the consistency you need, pour it into molds.
We usedpopsicle moldsand they were perfect because they had a built in handle.
Add about 5 drops of food coloring to each mold and stir.
Use more or less food coloring, depending on what colors you are trying to achieve.
Put in the freezer until frozen.
At least a couple hours.
I also brought our jug of vinegar out because I knew one squirt bottle wouldnt be enough.
As they began to melt it created abstract art that was just beautiful.
The colors meshed together so perfectly.
I never expected that, to be honest.
Summer Activities
The time to bring out the vinegar was as they started melting.
The squeals of laughter coming from my daughter were priceless.
I loved that this activity was super simple and inexpensive to make and led to hours of play.
We were able to draw, create abstract art and practice science all from one play recipe.
Here are some of our favorite baking soda and vinegar activities.
