Spring Marshmallows


It's the season for spring cleaning.  And...well...I still feel like I am settling in to our new home!  There is not a lot of spring cleaning for me to do except in my blog files!  I have so many fun projects I have not shown you yet!  So.  I am doing a little "spring cleaning" myself this week and going to show you a few things I've been working on but haven't had a chance to show you yet!

There are so easy, so simple, and great for your kids to make!


Grab some large marshmallows, candies for the ears and nose (I used Tropical Fruit Mike and Ike's) and your black edible marker (you can find these in the cake decorating part of most craft stores)  and have some fun creating different spring animals!

All you need to do it stick the Mike and Ike's in your marshmallow.  They should stay in there, but you can use a little frosting as glue if you need to.  And then use your marker to draw on the rest of the face.

So simple.  So easy.  Let your kids have fun making spring animal creations out of marshmallows, candy and edible markers!


Enjoy!
