It was a rainbow kind of day



Edited to add: I've gotten a few comments asking about the colored macaroni, so my Wordless post will now be wordy.

First of all, David spilled the jar of macaroni on the floor and we've been teaching him not to eat food off the floor, so... macaroni art! Two of David's handfuls of macaroni went into a baggie. Then I added 4 drops of food coloring and sealed tightly. Then David, with just a little help & encouragement, shook & squished the baggie until the noodles were covered with color. We spread them on newsprint to dry, then made the macaroni rainbow.

I've been testing out a few recipes like this lately, which I'm including in my new e-book, Made With Love Recipes for Arts & Crafts, which will be for sale at the Homeschool eStore when it's finished.
