Homemade puffy paint

Me and Jax were bored inside today and decided to do some art!! I found on the Internet how to make your own puffy paint and it came out great! Here's how you do it:
We started with one cup of flour and mixed in 3 teaspoons of baking powder, 1 teaspoon of salt and enough water to make it the consistency of pancake batter.
We divided our mix into four parts and put them into Ziploc bags along with some food coloring. Then, have the kids help squishing it all around to mix up.
Next, take a twist tie and tie up the bags like you were getting ready to frost something. Then snip of the corner of the bag and have them squeeze out the paint into their masterpiece.
When they are all done take the paper, put it in the microwave for 30-45 seconds and voila! Puffy paint magic


Enjoy!!
