We made stuff today!You could make this too!
Take one plastic mayo jar, enough rice to almost fill it, and twenty little things that children may find interesting but you don't want them to choke on. Layer the rice with the little things and tape the cover on.
Keep a list of the small things you placed in the jar, and then shake it up.
I have been twirling this around for HOURS and still have two of the twenty things that I cannot find.
A nickle and a tiny Precious Moments charm of a boy hugging a teddy bear.
Oh. We also made cookies. All that shaking of the jar, you know, required a fresh source of energy.This jar is REALLY a lot of fun. I found one in a book store for $19.99. In place of rice, the jar was filled with brightly colored seed beads. It was adorable, but the rice works just as well.
And, if the economy continues to spiral downward, I can open the jar and cook the rice. And retrieve the nickle.

You are too funny - but if the economy does continue its downward spiral you've taken a step in saving. ;)
What a great idea! I'll have to make one when Ava gets a little older. And I want your CC Cookie recipe - they look so good! Lately mine have been falling flat - and not looking so nice....
