Having a BLAST with street paint

Im always trying to follow my son's interests. I find that one way I can do that (instead of doing the same activity over and over), is to take something he is interested in, and apply it to something we have already done.  This is a twist on street paint.  You have seen it with brushes, you have seen it in balloons, and today - we put it in his water blaster! 

I bought this water blaster at the dollar store and he has been carting it everywhere - the park, the lake, the pool, etc.  Today, we used it to paint the driveway!  He loved it!

Just a reminder - Street Paint is Equal parts water and corn starch (corn flour) + food coloring.  (I dont really measure, you dont have to be exact.)

 Pouring out the rest, of course.


 Splashing in it (his favorite part).



 GOOD TIMES!!!
