Marshmallow masterpieces

Easy peasy. lots of fun. a great way to get a little something done on the side, a great distraction. (recommend this after a full healthy lunch, to deter eating too many of the project materials).

Needed
  • Bag of marshmallows (mini will give you more time, but may frustrate the littlest hands)
  • Toothpicks - the pointy ones! (Oh so maybe not so good for the littlest hands).
  • Pajamas (wait, that is optional)
Start building and see what happens, we had a house and a bridge in the end....

  1. What a great way to keep them entertained, so cheap and easy. If I know Ethan, more will go in his belly than on the sticks~
