Fun Activity With Kids Even Fun For Adults

Cover a table or countertop with newspaper or butcher paper to protect it from discoloration or scratches.
Pour a small pile of salt onto the paper. Use the amount of salt you wish to have of the particular color.

For example, if you want 1 cup of pink-colored salt, pour a little more than 1 cup of salt onto the surface.
Select a piece of chalk. Lay it on its side and rub it over the salt. Work the chalk over the salt until the salt is the color you wish to achieve.

Pick up the newspaper or butcher paper, creating a funnel with the paper through which the salt will flow.Position the funnel over a resealable plastic bag or a jar. Pour the salt into the container and seal it.

Continue with the remaining salt and colors you wish to create until you have a selection of colored salt for your project.
