RoseArt Sidewalk Chalk Paint Review

Only a couple more weeks of school for the kids in Iowa so mom's I hope you have some summer plans lined up.   One thing I do often with my children is sidewalk chalk.   We have played many games with sidewalk chalk including: 

Thank-you RoseArt for sending me the two pack sample to conduct my review.   I was not paid for this review and all opinions are 100% mine.   

The two pack we received retails for $7.99.   My kids surprised me and took turns sharing both colors amazingly well.   Each paint comes with one paint brush so if you have more kids you might want to pick up a few extra paint brushes.   

We used both colors up in one sitting.   It was  a lot of painting but we did use it all.   I am not sure how well the paint would last if stored for future use.   The paint can did have a cover so that would be something to check out.   

My children both enjoyed painting since it was different then normal chalk.  The paintbrushes did not last as long though which is my only negative comment.   The paint brush fell apart which made it more challenging to paint.   You will want to paint on a very flat surface outside with little to know rocks because that will ruin the paint brush.   So like mentioned before grabbing a few extra paint brushes would be helpful.

The colors are much more vibrant then normal chalk play.   We have had one rainfall so far and the chalk did not completely go away yet.   I'm not worried I know it will come off but it's nice to know that this art might stick around a little longer.    

As school years end make sure you pick up some sidewalk chalk for those moments when your children say, "I'm bored!"  


Update 5/13/14
We have had 2 rain storms come through and you can still see the orange and blue chalk paint.  It has faded some but still a lot left and it is making me nervous!

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

Description: The first book in  The Reading Game  learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender.  It’s told in rhyme, is beautifully illustrated, and is 32 pages long.  It will be the first book the student reads, and there are five more to follow in this groundbreaking learn to read program. Each of The Reading Game's six stories is told using just thirty new words.  These are broken down into six sets of five words.  The student learns to read each set of five words by playing a simple word matching game.  Frequent exposure through play hard wires these words into long-term memory.  Rote learning is transformed into a fast-paced game with a winner every few seconds. After completing Skunk, Game 1, the student has learned five words (can, cat, is, me, not).  Playing Game 2 adds an additional five w...
