Kid's Crazy Concoctions - 50 mysterious mixtures for art & craft fun
by Hauser Publisher Williamson
Edible Concoctions (Recommended but not available at my store)
Kid's crazy concoctions has recipes for paint (many types, several GF),
Paste (cornstarch based and lick-it-later gelatin based), Dough (clay
materials) and papier mache ideas.
AVAILABLE PRODUCT INFORMATION
After speaking with a CRAYOLA representative, they sent Material safety data
information that shows the top five ingredients in a product (for some).
Then poison control sent a list of active ingredients of some products, but
the list does not contain the inactive ingredients. THEREFORE, I cannot
determine if any product is GF since I do not have complete list of ingredients.
Overall information:
Starch or some form of starch is an ingredient in CRAYOLA finger paints
and water colors - Starch source may vary - These products MAY
CONTAIN GLUTEN
Other products which the GF status could not be determined - crayons,
Markers, Washable paint, Powder paint, Chalk, colored pencils, silly
putty and others
I have not had a problem with crayons, markers or chalk as I can
determine.
If you would like more information or information on products not listed
