Chalk is inexpensive and non-permanent - it washes away with water, meaning no stains on surfaces or on clothes. You can buy it from most supermarkets or corner shops or you can order it
online from places like Amazon. Always check the weather forecast before you begin - there’s nothing worse than creating a masterpiece then witnessing the rain wash your hard work away.
CLASSIC GAMES You can create a range of classic games using chalk. Hopscotch is an instant classic that comes to mind when you think of chalk, and provides endless games. You can also play
classic games, such as Pictionary - nothing but chalk and asphalt required. Set up a normal game of Hangman - but this time use chalk to draw the hangman. If you are feeling particularly
adventurous, have a lot of space, and have a lot of time on your hands, you can draw out a scrabble board. THE FLOOR IS LAVA Test your child’s coordination and balance by creating stepping
stones across your driveway. Challenge them to reach the safety base by hopping from one to the next without falling into the “hot lava”! MAKE STENCILS Create stencils using scrap paper or
cardboard and put on the ground for kids to colour in.
