Sensory learning activity for kids.

Material

2 tbs self raising flour
1 tbs salt
2 tbs water
6 drops food colouring - depending on depth of colour desired

Method

Mix all together. You may need a little less or more water. Make it the consistency of yoghurt.
Paint away. Once the masterpieces are finished, microwave for 30 seconds. PUFF!

Notes

I noticed my 22mo was hesitating and then putting the cotton bud into the correct colours. He was learning recognition of colours.

Want other brilliant projects sent to you?

Curious how the paint holds up once dry. Does it crumble off or is it durable?
