FINGER PAINTS
3 tbsp. sugar
1/2 c. cornstarch
2 c. cold water
Food coloring
Mix the first two ingredients and then add the water. Cook over a low heat, stirring constantly until well blended. Divide the mixture into 4 or 5 portions and add a different food coloring to each, plus a pinch detergent. VARIATIONS: Just beat warm water into Lux or Ivory Flakes until consistency desired and add paint or food coloring. If you don't wish to go to the trouble to mix finger paints, add a drop of food coloring to aerosol shaving soap.
