Looking for some fun family activities? Embrace the mess!"Kids love a good mess, and it's often a sign of a great time," shares award-winning author Donna Erickson. Simple joys like jumping into a pile of leaves or splashing in puddles after a rainstorm can grow into cherished family traditions.
Indoor fun is just as delightful without worrying about messes. Erickson's top pick this season is making apple-cinnamon clay. It’s a hands-on activity that kids and adults can enjoy together, creating aromatic ornaments or unique jewelry.
When things get messy, Erickson recommends using Kleenex Moist Cloths to make clean-up a breeze. They're nearly as effective as a washcloth, she notes.
Apple-Cinnamon Clay Recipe
You’ll need:
- 1/2 part applesauce
- 1/2 part cinnamon
- Mixing bowl
- 2 sheets of waxed paper
- Rolling pin
- Various cookie cutter shapes
Instructions:
1. Combine equal parts cinnamon and applesauce. For a small batch, use 1/2 cup of each. If it feels too sticky, add more cinnamon; if too stiff, add more applesauce.
2. Transfer the mixture onto a sheet of waxed paper and cover with another sheet.
3. Roll out the clay to about 1/2-inch thickness using the rolling pin.
4. Choose your desired shapes and press cookie cutters into the clay, removing excess dough.
5. Place the shapes on a cooling rack and clean up with Kleenex Moist Cloths.
6. Let the shapes air-dry for approximately 24 hours or until they harden.
7. Decorate with paints or glitter. Get creative! Add a clasp to make a pin or a ribbon for a necklace.
Enjoy creating memories while embracing the mess!
