Painting with Juices; An Easy Food Craft
Kids showing off their art pieces
Using food juices to do painting is one of the new kids craft ideas I came across. I love the idea of using food since it is non toxic versus synthetic paint. It is also ideal as one of the food crafts for preschool children since these are edible food.
Look for fruits or vegetables with fresh looking color. Here are the suggested ingredients:
- Dragon fruit with red color fresh
- Pandan Leave or Screwpine leaves
- Tumeric
- Carrot
Use a blender to blend each type of food. Add water slowly to determine the consistency of each type of juice you want. Some may be thick while others may be watery. Put each colored juice on palette. Let the kids unleash their creativity and start painting.
Leave the painting to dry outdoor or under the sun.
