How to Make Edible Paint

Children love to create, experiment and use their imagination. Edible paint is so much fun for young children to explore texture and taste and create art at the same time! Kids will love splattering paint and they can even paint with their feet and bodies. This is a great activity for outdoors. In the summer you can simply hose the kids down when it’s time to clean up!
