Photo of a Dish Soap Painting

Mia, age 5, made this house picture using the recipe found on this page. Her mom, Meg, explains, "We made small batches of this paint using 2 tsp. of blue Dawn dish soap and 4 drops food coloring per bowl for neon pink, neon purple, neon green, and blue. Some of the colors were not quite true since the blue dish soap mixed with them. For yellow, we doubled the amount of food coloring as it was a bit on the green side.

This was good enough to satisfy the kids."
