BAR OF SOAP!
Oh, the fun that can be had with one bar of soap. But, ivory soap, it must be! Did you ever wonder what would happen if you microwaved a bar of ivory soap?
Well, first cut it up:
Put it in for 1 minute:
And, tada, it explodes marshmallow style!
It is fantastic fun. Let it cool a bit and then you can mold it. It deflates and cools quickly and then it becomes quite crumbly.
So, with all that crumbly soap, we decided to make "clean mud." Just google and you can find some recipes. Essentially, you shred toilet paper, grate up a bar of soap or just use the crumbles from your microwaved bar, and add warm water. It seemed a little nutty at first, but it turns into this wonderful squishy, creamy mud. And it smells lovely.
Finn and Josette thought the toilet paper shredding was grand fun in itself:
Squish, squish. Finn enjoyed subjecting his cars and trucks to muddy fun:
Josette gave it a try:
Finn thought she really needed it all over her:

This is such a cool idea! We will definitely use this one this winter when we are wanting some messy fun. Of course, with the 105 degree temps we are having in Oklahoma, we might do this next week. I saw online that you can mix glitter into parts that you are molding to make a shimmery snowman (or whatever). I LOVE the messy fun that you guys get into! Thad and Finn would be such buds!
