How to Make Cascarones | Member Exclusive
How to Make Cascarones: Here’s what you’ll need: • Eggs • Paper & Hole Punch (or Paper Confetti) • Glue • Tissue Paper and Scissors STEP ONE: Crack the egg very gently on the top so only the tip breaks. Peel off the shell so a small hole is at the top, like this. Pour the egg out into a bowl. You’re going to want to rinse the eggs out with water and wait till the egg has time to dry on the inside. If you’re planning on dying them, you can do that once they’ve dried. STEP TWO: Now we need confetti! You can always buy a bag of confetti from the store. OR if you have scraps of construction paper laying around at home you can use a hole-punch to make your own confetti. STEP THREE: Use a spoon to pour the confetti into the hole of the eggshell. You can fill it up as much as you want. You can also use a funnel to help keep the paper from spilling out! STEP FOUR: Take some tissue paper and cut it into small squares, but make sure the squares are big enough to cover the top of your egg! Next, squirt some glue along the outside of the hole of the egg. Finally, cover the hole with the tissue paper. You should wait about 5 minutes to let the glue dry completely.

How To Make A Galaxy In A Bottle | Member Exclusive
How to Make a Galaxy in a Bottle: Here’s what you’ll need: • A small bottle • Water • Washable paint • Glitter • Cotton Balls • Glue • Thin Stick or Coffee Stirrer • Squeezable Plastic Bottles (optional) STEP ONE: Start by filling the bottle 1/3 up with water. STEP TWO: Squirt in some paint in whatever color you think looks like space or sky or just your favorite color into the bottle put the lid on and shake the paint and water together. STEP THREE: Add a little bit of glitter - maybe a 1/4 to 1/2 of a teaspoon. STEP FOUR: Stretch the cotton balls out and slowly stick them down into the bottle. Press them down with a stick to make space for more. Now we are going to repeat STEPS 1 through 4 until the bottle is full. This time through I’m going to use my squeeze bottles to show how that can save time and mess! In the squeeze bottles, you can water down the paint ahead of time so STEPS 1 and 2 are already done. You can also have a squeeze bottle filled with water and glitter so it the glitter doesn’t get everywhere. STEP 5: Glue the lid to the bottle. If you want to use super glue or hot glue, be sure to grab your adult to do it for you!

Dinosaur Imprint Cookies | Member Exclusive
How to Make Dinosaur Imprint Cookies: *This recipe contains Peanut Butter. This can be substituted with any nut butter alternative* Here’s what you’ll need: ½ cup Peanut Butter, or Nut Butter Substitute ½ cup unsalted butter, softened ½ cup white sugar ½ cup brown sugar 1 large egg ½ teaspoon baking soda ½ teaspoon baking powder ½ teaspoon salt 1 ¼ cup flour cinnamon sugar toys for fossil impressions STEP ONE: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. STEP TWO: In either a standing mixer or a large bowl with a hand mixer, combine your butters and sugars. Mix this on high for 1 – 2 minutes until it’s creamy. Once it gets to this consistency, add the egg and vanilla until it’s all mixed together STEP THREE: In a separate bowl sift together the dry ingredients – so the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda. STEP FOUR: Add your dry ingredients to your wet ingredients. I like to do this a little at a time so it gets mixed up evenly. STEP FIVE: Now we have cookie dough! Yummy! You can use a cookie scoop or a spoon to your dough and roll it into a ball. You can make them as big or small as you want. Remember dinosaurs come in all shapes and sizes! Place the ball on your cookie sheet. Make sure each cookie is about a half inch apart. STEP SIX: Bake the cookies for about 8 – 10 minutes. Let them cool for about 5 minutes. STEP SEVEN: Take your dinosaur and press into the cookie creating a fossil! Then to add an extra layer of sweet, take your cinnamon sugar and brush it in your impression.

Use glue dots or a glue gun to glue the googly eyes to the pom-poms. Now use the glue dots or glue gun to glue the pom-poms to the end of the paper roll. STEP THREE: Take two small pom-poms – about an eighth of an inch – and glue those to the other end of the tube. STEP FOUR: Take tissue paper in red, orange, and yellow and cut them into long strips. Cut them to be jagged or pointed at the end so they look like real flames. Take your glue stick and glue just the end of the tissue paper.
