What crafting with kids looks like around here. Please note that the goal with these activities is never to cultivate and encourage a creative mind. The goal is always to get a few quiet alone-time minutes for mom while containing any messes and preventing any unnecessary clean up. If both goals cannot be accomplished simultaneously, abandon the educational effort and just put on a movie instead.

Next slide please.
This is rare to see, so take a really good look at it. This is what you get when mom is on the phone, and the 4-year-old asks for something that mom didn't quite catch. She's busy and talking and can't really clarify, but she also doesn't want any further interruptions, so she makes the huge mistake of just saying yes.
It turns out the 4-year-old had said "Can I mix up an experiment?"
The result: a concoction comprised of old melted cotton candy ice cream, water, bacon bits, Tony's seasoning salt, and regular table salt.
Ok.
Any questions?
Make sure you add this stuff to your previous notes, you will see it on your upcoming exam.
