This easy foam paint recipe is so simple you won’t believe it! Gather your supplies first:

- white school glue

Puffy paint recipe
Mix equal parts of shaving cream and white school glue in a ziplock bag along with food coloring of your choice.
Seal bag and mix until thoroughly combined and you have the color you like.
Once it is thoroughly combined you can snip the edge of the corner using scissors to create a pipping bag.

Now it’s time to create some stunning artwork with this paint play recipe! I suggest drawing a simple picture with pencil first so kids will have an idea of where put the paint. Unlike pencil, this is not as easy to erase and re-do it.
