Toddler safe paint. DIY

posted 4th Oct
I'm looking for a toddler safe paint recipes. My LO is 14 months so she still likes to taste everything.
However, I want the paint to dry onto paper or clay so I can hang up her art or we can use it in gift making.

I'm looking on Pinterest but the few I've seen look kind of like paste, and I don't think that would dry very nicely.

Throw two cups of any kind of flour you have laying around the house into a bowl, add COLD water until it forms a fairly smooth paste free of any big lumps, then slowly add freshly boiled (kettle is fine) HOT water, stirring constantly until it forms the right consistency – if you’re finger painting you’ll want it to be a little thicker, so add less water obviously.
Split the mix into however many colours you’d like, add a few drops of food dye to each pot and you have non-toxic completely toddler safe “paint”, they can eat as much as that like, and although it won’t taste fabulous
