Tips
For a more rewarding crafting experience with your child, you may wish to complete the craft steps over more than one session, especially when drying time is required, or the child appears to be losing interest.
Craft Notes
Adult supervision is required at all times.
To play the game, put a strip of masking tape (or some other way of marking where kids will stand) at the desired distance from the pail. Have kids toss the marshmallows into the pail. Whomever gets the most in wins. Encourage kids be creative in making up other games to play using the scoop.
