Can I dye sand with food coloring?
yes, you can color sand with food coloring. it is a little messy. But my kids love playing with it. Here is how I did it: I put my sand in a zip lock bag and added the color that I wanted and then I kneeded the sand until all of the sand was the same color. Then I got one of those throw away pans from the dollar store and spread the sand on the pan and put it out side on a sunny day to let it dry. As soon as it dried I put each color in a different zip lock bag and my kids played with it. It is so easy and a lot cheaper than buying it at the store.
