For our craft of the day, our word was jelly bean. I drew a big letter J on a piece of paper and my idea was to have Izzy line that J with jelly beans. However, we did this activity fairly close to lunch so Izzy just wanted to eat the jelly beans instead. This was fairly humorous for me to watch because he would often get a flavor he didn't like and run to the trash can to spit it out (or you know, pull the classic 'spit it out in moms hand' trick).
Anyway, the idea of this activity was really just to dissect a large piece of jello. However,I did want to try injecting some color into the jello, so using our favorite eyedropper, we injected some colored water into the blob of gelatin. While you could sort of see the color as it went in, I think it would have worked better if I hadn't of made the two mistakes I mentioned above. Izzy still enjoyed dissecting the jello though and it kept him nice and busy until daddy got home from work.
