This was a fun last minute thought. I wanted to do a green activity, and found a box of lemon lime Jello. I made the Jello according to the directions, and place other green items in the containers like beads, pom-pom's, and a handmade clover out of pipe cleaners. The boys had fun. They really were not sure of the texture, and could not figure out why they could not pour the Jello out. Sometimes the boys don't like when their hands are dirty (especially Noah), and this was no different. They both took a while to really squish into the Jello, but when they did it was nice to see them having fun with the funky texture.
This project was a little messy and I thought that having some help would be nice. Auntie Allison quickly excepted our invitation to get messy! I love doing projects with my sister she's so good with the boys, and they really enjoy experiencing new things with her.
Next time I do this I will made at least 6 boxes so they can have bigger bins, but for a last minute thought it was well worth.
