Muffin Tin
Paint Brush- ½" wide is optimal (the wider the width, the easier it will be)
Food Coloring
Bread- White works best, wheat pictured
Milk
Marshmallows* (optional)
Put ⅛ cup of milk into each concave section in the tray. Squeeze 5 drops of food coloring into each section, creating a rainbow of colors- red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple. You can use this as a learning opportunity to teach primary/secondary colors- having your child create their own colors. ex: Combine yellow & blue to make green. Next- stir the colors until the color is mixed evenly into the milk.
Grab a paint brush and a slice of bread and begin your masterpiece. Any age group that can hold a brush can participate. Young babies will enjoy eating the bread that an adult prepares for them.
After you have finished your rainbow, pop the bread into the toaster. Use the same setting you would normally use for toast.
