• Add 2 tbsp of the liquid tempera paint, mixing well, especially at the bottom; add another tbsp of paint if you think it needs it.
• Add a little more water as the mixture thickens.
• Stir well and pour into small containers, such as the tiny dixie paper cups.
• Peel paper off after the chalk dries, give to the kids, and let them have fun; outside, of course!
