Happy Wednesday!
Those look like fun! I'm sure my kids would love to make them--of course, at the rate we're going, they'll probably end up in Pickle's nose!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like such a good time. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI love the idea for St. Patty's day necklaces...mind if I *borrow* it? :)
ReplyDeletefun and cool idea!
ReplyDeleteLooks easy enough and I'm sure lasts for a long time. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteVisiting from SITS, I used to make colored pasta when I taught preschool. The kids love it.
ReplyDeleteSweet!!! I never knew how to do it without swelling the pasta. Or coloring it by hand with markers, which is difficult when they're teeny. Awesome!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! I always give my kids beans to scoop and play with, but I like the idea of colored noodles so much better. How fun. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteOh how cute!! Great ideas!! I've never heard of Ziti, what is it and where would you find it?
ReplyDeleteNow that is right up my boy's alley! THanks for the tip
