Kids Activity: DIY Chalk Paint
This easy DIY chalk paint is a great way to get kids outdoors this summer!
Looking for a fresh twist on outdoor fun? Sidewalk chalk paint is the perfect warm-weather activity to keep little artists entertained for hours. It's colorful, creative, and easy to wash away when the masterpiece is complete. Best of all, you probably have everything you need already in your kitchen. It’s a simple project with big payoff, and a fun alternative to regular chalk that kids are sure to love.

Here’s how to make your own sidewalk chalk paint:
Step 1:
In a mixing bowl, combine equal parts cornstarch and water. Start with about two cups of each to make a good-sized batch.
Step 2:
Pour the mixture into smaller containers like a muffin tin, small jars, or bowls. Each container will hold a different color.

Step 3:
Add a few drops of food coloring to each container and stir. Go bold with bright reds, blues, yellows, and greens or get creative with color mixing.
Step 4:
Grab some paintbrushes and head outside. Let your kids go wild painting on sidewalks, driveways, or concrete patios.
Step 5:
As they paint, the cornstarch may start to settle. Just give it a quick stir and it’s good as new.

Cleanup is a breeze. The paint rinses right off with water and doesn’t stain concrete, making it a worry-free way to enjoy the outdoors. Whether it’s a sunny afternoon or a cool evening before bath time, sidewalk chalk paint brings out big creativity with just a few ingredients.
