Finger Paints - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 Tbsp. sugar
1/2 c. cornstarch
2 c. cold water
food coloring

Preparation

Mix the sugar and cornstarch. Add the cold water. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until well mixed.
Divide the mixture into 4 or 5 portions and add a few drops of different food coloring to each.
If you add a pinch of detergent to each portion, it will be easier to clean up your finger paints after the children play with them.
