Edible Fingerpaint (Yogurt-Based)

Made for babies who are going to taste-test everything anyway. This is just yogurt and food coloring — completely safe if it ends up in their mouth (it usually does).

Steps

1. Scoop yogurt into a few small bowls, one per color.
2. Stir in a couple drops of food coloring per bowl.
3. Lay down butcher paper on a splat mat or highchair tray.
4. Let your baby go at it with their hands — no brushes needed at this age.

Notes

Do this right before bath time. It will get on the baby, the floor, and possibly the wall. That’s the point.
