Wet Chalk Drawings

This is a quick, fun idea that Mr Bump did at preschool the other day.

Just wet your chalk and store it in an airtight container with a wet sponge in the bottom. I’m not sure how long it would take for it to grow fuzz, or even if it would, so I’d advise using it up within 3 or 4 weeks.

When the kids draw with them, they get really bright colours that won’t fade back to normal chalk colours as they dry.

The effect is something like crayons, but not. ~Did that make sense?!

We’re mothers, it doesn’t have to make sense.
