Sight words. Write down your children's sight words on craft sticks and put into this container. Makes a fun game.
Plastic cutlery for when camping, 72-hour kit, and Emergency Prep. (need stuff for the kiddos to do)
Store your kids crayons, markers, coloring pencils for when you take a road trip or camping.
This is just a snipit of what you can do with Crystal Light containers.
Peep Popcorn
For a long time our LM was severly Lactose Intolerant so we had to come up with fun recipes that he could eat. One such recipe is Marshmellow Popcorn. Well, today I didn't have any marshmellows but I had a lot of peeps leftover from Easter. Here is what you need.
1 Bag of Microwave popcorn or you can use your air popper
1 sleeve of peeps or 10-12 large Marshmellows
1/4 Cup of brown sugar.
Rocket Straws
The other day I was browsing Pinterest for a fun activity to do with our LM. I hit the jackpot when I found this post on how to make Rocket Straws.
To start, seal an empty envelope, then draw lines as shown. Invite your child to cut along the lines (or help him with this step, if necessary). The corner of the envelope will form the top of the rocket.
Easter Marshmellow Bark
- 1 bag white chocolate chips {12 oz}
- 3 cups mini rainbow marshmallows
- about 1 TBSP shortening {optional, but it really makes the melting process easier!}
- Easter sprinkles or other fun sprinkles for decor on top!
Measure out 3 cups of marshmallows. Line an 8x11 glass dish or a half-sized cookie sheet {like I used!} with parchment paper.
