Hope this helps!
That's a really good idea. We are going to try scratch and sniff painting today.

2 TBS flavored Jello
2 tsp. water

Mix in a small container--I have sm. Dixie cups that we are going to use. If you use plastic containers, the mixture can be refrigerated and saved.

Paint a picture (going to try coloring book pics), let dry, scratch n sniff!

I will report back to let you know if this works or not.
