Chalk Activities

Summer weather might be here to finally stay and we have spent a lot of our afternoons outside.  One of our favorite outside activity is sidewalk chalk.

I wanted to share a few activities that we have done the past couple weeks.

The first one we did was to review the letters in our name.  I wrote the letters in the little man's name then I called out the letter and he used his spray bottle to spray it away.  This could easily be used to review numbers or shapes too!

The second activity we used a paintbrush and water.  I drew shapes on the sidewalk and we painted over of the lines with the water.

Finally, we made our own chalk paint!  We took old pieces of chalk and crushed them up.

Then, we added water and painted away.  This was super fun and we even found some rocks to paint with our chalk paint.
