Home made colored sand

I have been wanting to make some color sand projects with my son, cause it brings back great memories as a child. We always made these with my mom or when we went to fairs.

So the other day I went into the craft store to get some and couldn't believe the price of colored sand. I didn't buy any and went home alittle sad, until I was out with my son drawing with colored chalk and it kept rubbing off on my hands and a light went off....lol.

After we were done I came inside and got some salt and colored chalk and we made our own....very easy and cheap.

Materials:
paper or we used wax paper
colored chalk......pack of 4 in the $1. section at Target
salt.... $0.34 at Wal-Mart 27oz bottle
