yes, you can color sand with food coloring. it is a little messy. But my kids love playing with it. Here is how I did it:
I put my sand in a zip lock bag and added the color that I wanted and then I kneeded the sand until all of the sand was the same color. Then I got one of those throw away pans from the dollar store and spread the sand on the pan and put it out side on a sunny day to let it dry. As soon as it dried I put each color in a different zip lock bag and my kids played with it. It is so easy and a lot cheaper than buying it at the store.

I'd think it would be too messy. As a kid my mom would put salt on a large sheet of wax paper and then give me a piece of colored chalk to rub all over it. The colors turned out nice and we used it to do sand art projects in glass or clear plastic jars.
