Messy Monday -- Edible Finger Paint

You can make edible finger paint out of several different things.  Most of them you probably already have around the house.  Here are several different options.

You can let your kids paint on paper, a cutting board, cookie sheet, themselves.  :)  It won't hurt them to eat it and you can throw them in the tub when they are done.  Perfect afternoon activity.
