First, to make colored salt, you need regular table salt, ziplock bags, and sidewalk chalk.
Simply choose your color chalk, stick it in the bag with the salt, and rub it all around. Watch as your salt turns the color of the chalk!
Next, we drew pictures onto a piece of construction paper. It's really hard to see it here, but Aiden drew an ant on this paper. He did it himself, while watching me do it on my own paper.
Next, I outlined his drawing with glue. Make sure you put your paper into a box before you do this. It will help catch the salt in the next step :)
After your glue is on, shake the baggie of salt onto the glue.
We used 4 different colors on ours:
Shake off the excess and see your picture come to life!
The masterpieces!
To hang, slip it into a page protector after it's dried. This will save you from salt all over your floor!
