This craft is so simple, you and your kids will get so much fun and spend your free time in a very interesting way. You will need 1/2 cup cornstarch, 1/2 tsp salt, 3 tbsp sugar, 2 cups cold water and food coloring. Mix all ingredients except food coloring well with a whisk. Set over medium low heat. Stir about 15- 20 minutes until thickened. The mixture goes from water consistency to thickened very quickly towards the end of the time period. Let cool. Distribute evenly into bowls or cups. Add food coloring and mix with a spoon. Let the little ones paint away and once you’re done, let it dry overnight.
