I'm the kind of mom that pictured herself doing tons of arts and crafts with her baby whenever I just had my son. Well, now that he is old enough to do a couple arts in crafts, Benjamin still has that habit of putting absolutely EVERYTHING in his mouth. Whenever I had tried to paint with him in the past, it always lead to a big disappointment because he would get upset that I wouldn't let him stick his paint covered fingers into his mouth, and then there was crying, messy hands, just...no. Well a couple months back, I remember one very awesome mama that I follow on Instagram, posted on her blog a recipe on doing edible paint. That's right, edible paint! I don't know why it took me this long to finally do it and it's honestly such an awesome recipe because most of these ingredients should already be in your pantry! You can find the recipe here on her blog but I decided to write it on my own also. (P.S. Check out her blog!) You will need:
Instructions:In a large bowl, mix all of your dry ingredients together with a whisk. Next, take your water and continue mixing. Make sure to really whisk to get any clumps out and to make it really smooth! Next, fill your disposable containers with the colors of your choice. I really wanted the colors to come out bright and vibrant so I added a lot of food coloring but you could use less for soft pastel colors like Cristi did! Fill the containers with your mixture and stir. Add more food coloring if you'd desire. And lastly, let your little one have fun! Benjamin loved helping me make his edible paint and he loved the edible paint just as much! This is definitely one of my favorite DIY's because you can just throw these away when you're done and make another batch next time you want to paint! Hope you and your little ones enjoy this edible paint as much as our little ones did!
