Good "Clean" Fun

With school starting for Anna just around the corner, I am enjoying my last few days with both my kiddos  at home.  We like doing crafts and today's was extra fun for all three of us.  (I found this on "Pintrest", so I am not able to take full credit for the idea.)

We first had a bar of Ivory soap.  (ONLY Ivory soap can be used for this)

We watched it "GROW like a plant" in the microwave.  (Put it in for about 2 minutes on high power)

 It comes out looking like "clouds"


 The kids then played with it... it crumbles in your hands!  WEIRD

Anna says, "This is AWESOME!"

We then added water, and blended it until it was like dough and moldable.

Anna played kitchen with it -pretended she was making homemade rolls. 

Then we put them into cookie/ play do cutters.

Will and his finished soaps!!

We did 3 bars of Ivory soap and made 8 fun sized soap bars for the kids to use in the bath and Will has recently decided he likes to use bar soap to wash his hands. 

Will's favorite part was the clean up!  He didn't like how the soap felt "SLIMY" so he was more than willing to clean the cookie cutters and all our tools for me!  : )
