Having fun with Candy!

A review of the "Candy" crafts!

Pop Rocks painting
Just add pop rocks to paint to make a fun sensory paint. I did not give my kids paint brushes for this, I highly encourage them to fingure paint this time sense the paint felt different.




just mix paint and pixysticks to create a fun sensory paint idea!


Pop Rocks and shaving cream
Great for sensory play. My daughter loved listing to it pop and loved moving it from palce to place in different bowls and plates.


Ice breaker 
This is great fun for play on a hot day.
First fill half of a ice cube tray with pixy stix and paint and let freeze. 
Once frozen either with a real hammer or toy one let you'r kid break the ice and play! (sense there is paint you can also paint) (I let my daughter use a real hammer with safy glasses and had no issues and there was no chips flying anywere it was actelly very easy to break and smelled very good.


Painting with M&M's


HERE'S WHAT YOU DO:
Take a one pound bag of M&M's and empty in a bowl. (The amount of M&M's will vary based on the group size.)
Have your kids sort them by color into individual cups.
Once sorted, pour enough water to cover the M&M's and begin stirring with paint brushes.
Once the color of the water has changed you are ready to paint!!


This craft covers all of the senses!
SIGHT - Sorting the M&M's by color.
TOUCH - Describing the texture of the M&Ms while sorting.
HEARING - Listening to the M&M's being stirred in the cups.
SMELL - Smelling the M&M colored water while painting.
TASTE - After the craft was over... my mom let the kids munch on a few M&Ms during snack time.

Big giant slime ball!!

This was such a fun activity! All you need is two boxes of slime baff and a wubble ball. We got the super wobble ball. So to make this epic slime ball use the tube it came with and place it in the ball as directed on the instructions. Next pour in all the slime baff. After that grab a hose and hold it in the tube. At first we did not let it get that big, too scared of it popping.  The kids including neighbor kids loved it. We played kid bowling and let this roll down the driveway. The kids thought it was the best thing ever to see this ball bend around them with out breaking. (will attach videos at the end)  If you look close you can see the slime forming. You can barely tell it started as a blue ball.  After awhiel of play we decided to make it bigger. We attached the tube and hose again and let it grow till the kids said stop.  Below is how big it got moments before popping.  This had to weigh a lot. Once the ball popped all the ki...
