Homemade Paint Recipes for Baby
Baby Finger Paint
Method
Light colored baby food purees work best for this. We used jars of pureed banana and pear.
- Open the jars.
- Add 10-15 drops of food coloring to each jar and stir until combined.
- Give it to baby on their highchair tray or on paper.
- Paint brushes are fun and help build fine-motor skills, but they are not needed. Often times little ones will choose to explore with their hands.
