Sidewalk Chalk

Summertime is right around the corner.  For those of you with kids, you might be wondering how you're going to fill the days for your little offspring once they're out of school for a spell. 



You could teach them how to play hopscotch, if you remember how yourself.  Of course you'll need a stretch of sidewalk and some sidewalk chalk.

Let's make it a little more interesting.  How about on one of those rainy days you undertake the project (with your kids' help of course) of making your own sidewalk chalk? 




Oh sure, it might be easier to just go out and buy some chalk, but what would be the fun in that?  I found a great tutorial on how to make your own chalk and it actually looks doable.  Once you have your chalk all made I bet you'll want to go out with the kids and create your own works of art on the front walk.



For the full tutorial on how to make your own sidewalk chalk just go to Artwork.  You'll find all sorts of other fun tutorials there too!
