The Mom I Want to Be

 

The tub makes a great place for your child to paint.  When they are finished, just rinse them off. 

 

Paint Recipe: 

 

1/2 C. Cornstarch

1 C. Cold Water

1 Envellope Unflavored Gellatin

2 C. Boiling Water

Food Coloring

 

Combine cornstarch and 3/4 C. cold water in a sauce pan and mix well.  Soak gelatin in remaining 1/4 C. cold water.  Add boiling water to cornstarch mixture, stirring as water is added.  Cook over medium heat and stir constantly until boiling.  When the mixture is thick and clear, remove from heat and stir in dissolved gelatin.  When it cools, divide it into separate containers and add a few drops of food coloring to each small container for different colors.
