Trying to find things to go along with a Gingerbread unit that use our senses. I wanted to paint Gingerbread houses and thought it would be great it they could smell yummy after they dry. I figured out how… 
Grab some Kool-Aide or the Generic brand like I used (it is much cheaper and works as well). Find small containers for each color. Empty the packet into a container. Add water slowly… just enough to make the powder dissolve. That is it!
Now you have some smelly paint. I did find that q-tips work best for applying the paint. It is a thinner paint and I liked it that way… but if you wanted it thicker, you could always add some of your tempra paint to each color.
