Painting with sidewalk chalk is a fun new twist on an old classic! I know most of the country is watching the leaves change color and snuggling up in cozy sweaters, but here in Florida we are just starting to enjoy our outdoor weather. My kids had a blast painting our front walk, and I’m sure yours will love it too.

Oooooo, that sounds easy and fun!
Awesome idea! Alex is SOOOOO into painting now. He paints about 3 times a day, at least. And we discovered the pastel-y-ness (not a word, sorry) of the chalk after he left it out in the rain, oops.
Great idea to try with my 8 two-year olds in Pre-school!
