Rainbow are such fun!

Rainbow Milk Toast
This is such a bright colorful activity kids will love. To try this you only need a few simple supplies you probabaly already have in your kitchen:
Materials:
- bread (plain white bread allows you to see the colors best)
- paint brush (never been used so there is no paint left on it)
- can of condensed milk
- food coloring . (If you are staying away from artificial dyes, I found you can buy natural food coloring using natural ingredients derived by fruits and vegetables)
- toaster (optional)
Milk Toast
Start by mixing sweetened condensed milk and food coloring in little bowls. Using a clean paint brush or pastry brush kids paint their bread to make rainbows or pictures. Next, blot the bread with a paper towel to remove any excess “paint” so you don’t make a mess in your toaster.

Now pop your painted bread in the toaster. This step is optional, you can just have milk bread if you like, but we enjoyed ours toasted. It was super yummy, pretty, and such a fun rainbow activity for the whole family. It is so easy and quick! It took like 5 minutes!
Spring activities for kids
Note: We did not have any paint get in our toaster; I think blotting the bread with a paper towel is the success. When it comes out it may be slightly moist in some areas, that’s okay. So yummy!
This color activity for preschool was as yummy as it was pretty!

Hello! Do you know how many slices of toast you were able to paint with the one can of condensed milk? I’m wanting to do it for my summer camp and need to do it in bulk. Thank you!
It depends on how many colors you are making / offering.. One can was enough for my 6 kids
