Today I was determined to not let my daughter watch more than 1 Dora after breakfast. Some days while we wait for her sister to wake up I enjoy my coffee and realize how easy it is to let an hour of tv time fly by if your not careful even if it is educational but today I had a plan and a craft in mind for right after breakfast. We made macaroni necklaces. It was so fun and easy, Madalynn is 2 1/2 and did it with ease.
what you'll need:
pasta noodles we used ziti but elbows, ditalini, anything with an opening that you can thread a ribbon thru is fine
food coloring and vinegar
thin ribbon that you can tie and use as a necklace
Thats it! use 2 tbsp. of the vinegar and 10-12 drops of food coloring to dye the noodles place ina zip lock bag for 5 min. then dry. We did about a 1/4 cup of pasta in 4 different dyes
