Fun With Yogurt Paint

I think spring is finally here to stay. We had those few days in the 70’s last month where the kids immediately put on swim suits & ran as fast as they could outside to the water tables. Then the next day it was back to 40 degrees & rained for days. Once we broke out the swim suits, my kids wanted to wear them everyday. We wore them for dance parties, “swim lessons” in the bath tub & then when we were running out of things to do indoors in our bathing suits, we painted the shower & tub with yogurt! I originally got the idea for yogurt paint from one of my favorite bloggers, Jellibean Journals.

It’s so easy to make & doesn’t have to be used in the tub. It’s a fun outdoor finger painting project too.

It’s also pretty tasty. As you can see, my kids faces are covered in it from “sampling” each color.

Ingredients:

Yogurt

Food coloring

Directions:

Use about 1/2 cup yogurt to 1 drop of food coloring. Stir & paint!

Please note that food coloring can stain. We took a bath immediately after this so the coloring didn’t stain their bathing suits or skin. Don’t wear your favorite clothes for this project & don’t do it right before family portraits!
