Spring Break!

This week my girls are out of school so in observance, I am taking a break from the exercises.

Instead, as things come up that are enjoyable for my girls and I, I will share those experiences/experiments instead.

Recently Lillian (7) and I were working on a few gift ideas for Sage (2).

We decided upon multi-colored, heart shaped crayons. We found a mini-heart shaped muffin tray at a craft store. We peeled the papers off crayons and broke them into small pieces. We put the crayon bits into the muffin molds and melted them all together at the lowest bake temperature in our oven.

They ended up with a clear layer on the top which probably could have been avoided if we had stirred them a bit but this falls into the experiment category. They are a great size for chubby little hands to hold on to and Lil and I had fun putting them together!

Happy Spring!
