DIY Chalk Paint Recipe and Train Fun

easy diy chalk paint recipe

I thought of this idea right before my toddler woke up from  his nap as a way to distract him from his usual groggy and grumpy self.  It worked! He played with all three of his brothers and some neighbors for over two hours and they even got creative and added more tracks down the driveway.

Chalk paint is so fun and easy to clean up, just add water!
