One 88 cent box of spaghetti, One $1.49 bag of mini-marshmallows. Twelve kids. Two hours of after school fun! These children seriously could not get enough of this activity.
The structures were a little "touch and go" getting started as the marshmallows were soft and unstable.
But once they got going we noticed the marshmallows firmed up a bit and building proceeded more quickly.
Note to self...let the marshmallows sit out for a couple hours before building to harden.
Have fun!
What a great activity! Its fun to see their creativity I just might use this idea for a minute to win it game.
ReplyDeletewell you can if you like...but be advised...they won't want to stop.
ReplyDeleteI can imagine they don't want to stop. By the end of the activity is your supply of marshmallows still complete ;-) If I was a student I might have a bite or two ;-)
