I'm wanting to do a craft project with the preschoolers I take care of. How do you make the pasta different colors? Can you buy it that way? Thanks.

you can buy rainbow pasta in almost any supermarket (red, green and the regular yellowish colour).  i think you'd have to dye it if you wanted other colours.  there are also fun shapes like bowties and wagon wheels.  i know wagon wheels come in the tri-coloured variety because we just had some for our evening meal tonight.

You could try fabric, or raid the pantry - maybe you could cannabalize some cereal boxes or soup labels for more color?  If you have a needle or can punch through the flag, you could try "stitching" it with a slip of paper, or a shoe lace?

I used to teach Sunday School, and It's GREAT to do a craft with them. I would look in a children's bible and pick out a good story and base the class on that story and what it teaches. Find a craft to do relating to it- even if it's just coloring. Read the kids the story and talk briefly about what it means, then explain the craft you guys are going to do and how it relates to the story you just read. Then you guys can all do the craft until the parents come pick them up!

I have a degree in early childhood education and here are some ideas and links:\n1) First get some brown and Orange paint and use the child's hand print to make a Turkey and add a bit of red construction paper for under the turkey's neck and an eye for his head and a bit of yellow construction paper for the beak.\n2) Make Indian and pilgrim hats. Older kids can cut the younger ones can color them.\n3) Cut out mag pics of people and food and have them make a picture\n4) Make a picture from outdoor leaves, pine cones and acorns.\n5) Just look around the Internet with "thanksgiving crafts and 3yrs old" Here are a few sites I found. Good luck! And Enjoy!\n\nhttp://www.first-school.ws/theme/animals/birds/turkey.htm\nhttp://www.homeschoolzone.com/pp/crafts/tg-paper-turkeys.htm\nhttp://homeschoolzone.com/pp/crafts/pump-seed-flower.htm\nhttp://homeschoolzone.com/pp/crafts/tgplacemat.htm\nhttp://www.kidsdomain.com/holiday/thanks/color.html\nhttp://familyfun.go.com/arts-and-crafts/season/index.html?CP=KNC-FFGoog100705

no styrofoam??? aww that ruins some of the fun! i love crafty projects tho. okay you can use bakeable clay. it comes in a variety of colors and can be molded into many shapes. i would suggest working from the inside out and making it into a circle with a pie shaped cutout in it so you can see inside. basically you would make the clay figure and then bake it. you can spray it with a glossy finish and tadaa! oh, and to hang it from the ceiling? i guess you would need to screw in a metal hook beforehand. good luck!!

I had to do this before, but I had to make mine out of candy. If you're allowed to do that, use candy. It's pretty easy. Just get some wire, twist them to the right shape, and use different kinds of candy on them. Once you have those up, then you'll need the wires that go across to connect them. I find that candies like twizzles and gummy worms work well. It shouldn't take that long to make. Good luck!

I think an interesting project would be:\n"Crayola Banned [and new] Crayon Colors!!"\n\nYou could talk about why some colors (like flesh and indian red) were seen as offensive and replaced - flesh is now "peach," since everyone's flesh is not peach-colored.  You could also talk about new colors that have been introduced to go with new trends and technology - for example, I believe there is a bubble-gum or tutti-frutti color that wasn't in the original set.\n\nGood luck!\n\nhttp://www.factmonster.com/ipka/A0872797.html\n(I guess I was thinking about "cotton candy" color.)

You can make a spiral using heavy construction paper! First cut a large circle. Draw an outline of a spiral on the paper that is slightly bigger than the toy car, then cut the paper.... you could then glue it on a piece of wood at the high end and then drive the toy down the spiral... I realize not much detail but I hope this helps you in the right direction

Here is one way:\n\nFibers are beaten in a blender to a creamy pulp. At this stage, dyes can be added to create colored papers.\nhttp://www.recoverusa.com/mat_hist_pap.htm

I'm Italian so we tweaked the traditional American Menu so here it is.................\nTURKEY (of course) now to make it interesting my mom de-bones her turkey & stuffs it with a more italian like stuffing of wild rice mushrooms & spinach. Its tender and delicious\n\nMASHED POTATOES this I make with roasted garlic & chives a must have\n\nSTUFFING this is more traditional not actually stuffed into the turkey. \n\nBROCCOLINNI which are a green italian vegetable, very good.\n\nGREEN BEANS another american tradition, but we put our own twist on it with garlic & olive oil, and best thing is these are fresh grown in our own garden!\n\nPASTA our table always has a pasta on it either with a sauce or in the form of a soup. This year we are making gnocci a very yummy potatoe based pasta with a roasted tomato sauce.\n\nCRANBERRY SALAD made with fresh cranberies, pineapple & nuts real good.\n\nSWEET POTATOES in the oven.\n\nPUMPKIN PIE, BLACK BOTTOM BANANA PIE, CHOCOLATE SILK PIE (something for everyone) tons of holiday cookies too!!\n\nCHESTNUTS after dinner & dessert we roast chestnuts and eat them this is a huge family tradition!\n\nThis is Thanksgiving Italian-American Style

I just finished helping my son with the same project. We used cardboard, gold spray paint, glitter, a small wooden chest from walmart as the sarcophagus, aluminum foil wrapped in gauze for the mummy. He used orange and red tissue paper on toothpicks as torches, cut up straws as the jars in the treasury room, and cut outs of egyptian furniture pasted to the wall. We used playdoh to make the outside of the sarcophagus and an old pair of earrings as the flail and staff. And finally I used some type of cotton material to make spider webs with fake spiders. We used mostly what we had on hand. Total cost of putting it together was less than $10 and my son got an A!!!!

Use the pastel or whatever the kindergarden kids use.  It is like mud but comes in different colours.  The model should be a representation of the cross-section of your cell.  Use strings and other things to show different structures of the cell.  Some diagrams are drawn in 3D, and that's what your model should look like.  I wish they made us do that in university.  It would be fun.

It's no use trying to find that out. Those conditions are to be fully controlled to get "non-colored" products.\nAnd be careful with what you use in food products!!
