Kisses & Fishes

Since E. and his cousins couldn't play the exploration pretend game they made up due to rain, we made Kisses & Fishes inside yesterday afternoon. I got the recipe for Hershey Kiss Cookies off the back of the Kisses package and threw another 1/4 cup peanut butter into the batter for good measure. The cookies tasted so good and made the house smell very yummy!


As for the fishes, the boys made marble-painted fish tanks and beaded fish (and jellyfish and crabs) to put in them. This fun idea came from the blog se7en - the life and times of a home schooling mom of 7. You'll find the instructions here. There are actually several other items that you could make to put in the "tank" including chalk jellyfishes, clay starfish, painted turtles, etc. It's a project that keeps on giving!
