A Sidewalk Color Camp, for Your Sidewalk! (Overview)
Ahhh. Late summer. Vacations are almost over, and there are plenty of hot days left to fill. Need ideas to keep your kids engaged and cool? This Mini Sidewalk Color Camp is great for ages 4-10. There is no easier work table than a sidewalk, and no faster clean up than a water hose. (All colors listed are washable.) Just put your kids in their bathing suits and spray them down when it’s over!
