Finger Paint Recipe
This finger paint recipe is cornstarch based. It is easy to make and it keeps well. I also have a flour based recipe on my fingerpainting page.
Ingredients:
- 3 TBS of sugar
- 1/2 cup cornstarch
- 2 cups of cold water
- Food coloring
- Liquid dishwashing detergent
- Medium saucepan
- Small cups
- Spoon
- 1. Mix sugar and cornstarch in the saucepan over low heat
- 2. Add water slowly and continue stirring until the mixture is thick
- 3. Remove from heat
- 4. Divide the mixture to the number of portions you like (3 to 5) in small cups
- 5. Add a couple of drops of food coloring to each mixture along with a drop of dishwashing detergent
- 6. Stir and let cool
- 7. For best storage, cover the paints in airtight containers (I use our used and washed yogurt containers)
