The girls and friends tried a little puff painting. They made it, mixed it, painted it and microwaved it. You take 1 Tbs of salt and 1 Tbs of flour and mix that with a little water to make a paste. Then put in drops of food coloring to make the colors. The muffin tin looked so pretty after they finished their concoctions.
They painted with Q-tips. When they finished they would stick it in the microwave for 30 seconds. That puffs it and dries it.
Kaylee's friend Analise had painted clouds and a sun. The puff paint was perfect for the dimension of those clouds.
I was trying to find where I found this, but can't remember, its somewhere out there in a kids' craft blog.
