Forget losing your marbles – gain some! Use Sculpey to have the kids create their very own marbles. It heats in the oven and becomes hard, then once they're cool, the kids will have marbles!
Those marbles will come in handy if you have an old swim noodle that you can cut in half lengthwise. Have a marble race by holding up the noodle and sending the marbles down the middle, or make your own racetrack!
I scream, you scream, we all scream for homemade ice cream. Make your own frozen treats. Use one cup of flavored coffee creamer of your choice, then add 2 tablespoons of sugar. Put them in a quart-sized Ziploc bag and seal. Place the bag inside a gallon-sized Ziploc bag. Add lots of ice to the large bag, plus a few tablespoons of rock salt. Now comes the fun part – have the kids shake the bag for a good 10 minutes or so. Place in the freezer if not frozen enough, then serve!
