If you’re looking for some creative activities for kids that require little to no prep work and supervision, use our delicious “paint” recipes to “paint” all kinds of tasty treats – from cookies to fruits to popcorn and more!
The kids will love channeling their inner artist while learning how to safely use a brush. You may even choose to have them mix the colors themselves! They can see in action how different color combinations work and also just how the amount of pigment affects the final project.
Be sure to set up a craft area for the kids as this activity can certainly get messy. Line your tables with old newspapers and make sure kids are wearing clothing they can comfortably get messy in.
