Sidewalk Chalk recipe

There are many ways to make a chalk. Did you know that you can make a sidewalk chalk using eggshells? Here's what you need:
  • 45 eggshells
  • One-teaspoon flour
  • One-teaspoon hot tap water
  • Food coloring
What You Do:
  • Wash and dry eggshells, put in a bowl and grind into powder. Mix flour, hot water, food coloring, and 1 tablespoon of the eggshell powder in another bowl. Mix until mixture looks like paste. Shape the chalk and then roll it tightly in a paper towel and allow to dry for about three days.
This is a good activity for children. Have fun!
