All their own work

mine didn't look like that!

Me and mindee looked like we had been pebbled dashed with rice crispies

I'm doing these tomorrow. I wonder which version we'll end up with!!!

Especially as there will be three mindees 18mth, 21/2 and 3. Wish me luck.

Were these the sainsburys recipie ones? We did them yesterday, and I said to the 3 kiddies to squish them into balls! They were so sticky they just ended up all over their hands, and wouldn't come off... Definatley no 'head' shapes... One little boy said it was a skeleton - not really the look I was going for!

In the end I have to muster up the balls & get them to stick the bits on.

Very yummy though...

I used the Sainsbury recipe next time i think we will give the marshmallows a miss

I've practicly had to peel the children off the table!

I wish i could put a picture on here

**wellybelly** · 13-03-2009, 12:24 PM

I made them today but OMG the mess! Done get me wrong I am used to messy play with paint, gloop, flour, water etc, but I think I'll need WD$) to clear the mellow stringy bits off my kitchen worktops

Do you think the examples shown in the recipe were as sticky ? because they look glossy and a perfect dome shape in the picture.
