In reply to LaWanda.

I’m not sure what kind of coverage you’d get with liquid food colouring, but you could try. You could also try with spices – cinnamon, turmeric etc.

Could you use food color instead of paint to make it safer for a toddler?

In reply to Francie Bush. It would depend on the child, Francie. You know your children/students best. If you don't trust that they won't put the popcorn in their mouth, I wouldn't do this craft. Not so much because of the choking risk, but because the popcorn is coated in tempera paint.

Great idea! Would this work for two year olds? Choking hazard?

In reply to Deb. Thanks, Deb! It WAS fun! Eating it, and then shaking it all up, and then crafting with it. Who knew popcorn could be so entertaining? :)

This is so cute! I love the idea. I grew up in a church that sang a gun popcorn song in the spring. i think this would be fun to do and sing that song. I pinned and I have to share on facebook too!
