Window
Clings
|
What
you need:
* Regular white school glue - one small bottle for each
color
* Food coloring of your choice
* Clear film - transparency sheets work best, but cling wrap
can work too
* Patterns or pictures to trace - school mascots, favorite
animal, letters to spell out your name ~ anything!
* Tape
|
What you
do:
Mix a few drops of food coloring to each glue bottle and mix
well. This might take a little bit. Put your design
under the transparency film or cling wrap. Tape it down so
it won't slide all over the place. Trace over the design
with a continuous bead of glue, then fill the tracing in with
more glue. Let it dry for at least 12 hours. Peel
your work of art off the film and place on any glass surface.
They can be stored between sheets of plastic wrap in a cool
place.

Beanbag
Balls
What
you need:
* 9 11-inch balloons (makes three balls)
* Funnel
* 2 1/4 cups of dried lentils or rice
* Scissors
|
 |
What you
do:
Stretch the first balloon by inflating it halfway, holding it
closed for about 30 seconds, and letting the air out.
Place the funnel in the balloon's neck and slowly pour in 3/4
cup of the lentils or rice, pushing them in as you go. The
balloon should be firm but squeezable. Snip off the lip of
the balloon, but leave the neck part. Take a second
balloon and cut off the whole neck. Ease the second
balloon over the first one gently, tucking in the neck of the
first one as you go. Cut the neck off the third balloon
and ease it over the other two, making sure to cover the opening
of the second balloon. Repeat this process to make a set
of three balls. The use your imagination to create new
games, change up some old ones, or even learn to juggle ~ just
make sure you aren't near anything breakable!

How to Get
Rid of Hiccups
Hold your breath
till your face turns blue;
Drink a large glass of water or two;
Stand on your head with your feet in the air;
Ask someone mean to give you a scare.
Drink something
bitter or drink something sweet;
Bend way over till your hands touch your feet;
Jump up and down for an hour or so;
Sit very still and just wish them to go.
Spin around and
around till you can't stand up;
Try to drink hot coffee from the wrong side of the cup;
Walk on the ceiling with magnetized shoes;
Listen to an hour of evening news.
Paint your face
with spots and flowers;
Listen to bagpipe music for hours.
These are my ways to make hiccups quit -
But none of them (hiccup) work (hiccup) one little bit.
Joe Thompson
Room Cleaning
Robot
I'm building a
robot to clean up my room
using junk on my floor like this busted balloon.
I'll build it with tee-shirts and three smelly socks,
four wrappers, a rock, and a cereal box,
a handful of worms that were dried in the sun,
my brother's rare comic, a cinnamon bun,
a library book that's a year overdue,
a sneaker, a sandal, and Dad's missing shoe.
I'll keep on constructing with old underwear,
used tissues, dried spit balls, and fallen out hair,
a half eaten sandwich, that's half a year old,
a broken umbrella, I can't get to fold.
I'll top off my robot with crushed soda cans,
a jar full of flies, and a bucket of sand.
As I finish my robot, I have to confess,
that my room is now clean, but my robot's a mess.
