Rock Candy...

The kiddos and I like to make something fun each weekend. Last week we made Rock Candy.

1. We boiled the sugar and water. We added food coloring and flavoring.
2. We poured them into jars and placed a pipe cleaner attached to popsicle stick in each flavor. We made 5 different flavors. Cherry, Lime, Raspberry, Orange, and Strawberry.


3. After letting them sit for 4 days, we had rock candy.
It was a fun project, however, I don't know what I thinking letting the kids eat pure sugar.
