KFF- Chalk Board Books

Welcome to Kid Friendly Friday where I share anything that other parents might find interesting or useful.

A while back I saw these chalk board books, and immediately the wheels started turning. I had to have one. I had a busy bag swap coming up, so I went to the thrift store and picked up a few board books, and the fun is history.

Here’s what I did:

  1. Use Sandpaper on each page. The paint sticks better if the glossy coat has been scratched. 
  2. Paint each page with chalk board paint. It works best with at least 2 coats of paint.
  3. Let dry for 24 hours before priming your pages.
  4. Prime pages by coloring each page entirely using the side of your chalk.
  5. Clean of chalk, and give the book and chalk to your child.
