[FONT="]Easter Mints Kids Can Make[/FONT]
[FONT="]1/3 c Soft butter[/FONT]
[FONT="]1/3 c Light corn syrup[/FONT]
[FONT="]1/2 ts Salt[/FONT]
[FONT="]1 ts Flavoring[/FONT]
[FONT="]3 1/2 c ( 1 lb ) sifted confectioner's sugar[/FONT]
[FONT="]Large bowl[/FONT]
[FONT="]Wooden spoon[/FONT]
[FONT="]Paper plates[/FONT]
[FONT="]Pencils[/FONT]
[FONT="]This is a no-cook recipe the children can mix with their hands. Flavor it with any of the liquid[/FONT]
[FONT="]flavorings in the supermarket, such as strawberry and lemon. If you want, you can instead divide it[/FONT]
[FONT="]into three portions and add a few drops of food coloring to tint it yellow, red, and green. The knead[/FONT]
[FONT="]a small amount of flavoring into each one. This recipe makes about 1 1/2 lbs of candy.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Help the children measure all the ingredients into the large bowl. They can take turns stirring it[/FONT]
[FONT="]with the wooden spoon until it becomes too stiff. Then they can knead it with their hands. They[/FONT]
[FONT="]should continue kneading until the dough is smooth.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Give each child a paper plate and a pencil. Tell them to turn their plates OVER and write their[/FONT]
[FONT="]names on the Bottom to prevent pencil lead from getting on their mints. Help them hold their[/FONT]
[FONT="]pencils correctly. Make sure they use upper and lower case letters.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Give each child a portion of dough on his or her plate. The children can pinch off pieces, roll them[/FONT]
[FONT="]into balls, and press them lightly with a fork to make a fancy butter mint. Children who cannot roll[/FONT]
[FONT="]the candy into balls can make snakes, cut the snakes into pieces, and press the pieces with a fork.[/FONT]
[FONT="]They might eat the pieces with the fork, but that's ok too.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Leave the mints on the plates and refrigerate them for 30 minutes, until they become firm. Easter[/FONT]
[FONT="]Mints taste even better the second day, if you can keep everyone from eating them all on the first[/FONT]
[FONT="]day. Cover with plastic wrap and keep them in the refrigerator.[/FONT]

[FONT="]Pack another hobo pouch for yourself and go along. Make sure someone has a Scout knife with a[/FONT]
[FONT="]can opener attachment to open cans (much more fun struggling with one of these things than to[/FONT]
[FONT="]take a conventional can opener). The oranges serve as both a drink and a dessert. Poke a hole in[/FONT]
[FONT="]one end and after all the juice has been sucked out, open it and eat the flesh. The tuna and beans,[/FONT]
[FONT="]of course, are eaten just as they come from the can. The bandanas serve as little tablecloths,[/FONT]
[FONT="]napkins, and kerchiefs to be worn back home. Children love this hobo picnic--it's easy for you,[/FONT]
[FONT="]nutritious, filling, and fun from them.[/FONT]

[FONT="]Rock Candy[/FONT]
[FONT="]2 c granulated sugar[/FONT]
[FONT="]Heavy cord[/FONT]
[FONT="]1 c water[/FONT]
[FONT="]The book says to put one cup of water into a small saucepan, pour 2 cups of granulated sugar into[/FONT]
[FONT="]the water, heat the water and sugar on the stove over a medium heat, continue stirring until the[/FONT]
[FONT="]sugar melts, keep adding sugar and stirring until it melts, stop adding sugar when you see that it[/FONT]
[FONT="]will no longer dissolve in the water (that is until you see sugar lying on the bottom of the[/FONT]
[FONT="]saucepan). Remove the pot from the stove, let the liquid cool until it is just warm. Pour the liquid[/FONT]
[FONT="]into a clean glass jar. Tie one end of a piece of heavy cord around the middle of a pencil. Place the[/FONT]
[FONT="]pencil over the top of the glass jar letting the cord fall into the liquid. Crystals will begin to form in[/FONT]
[FONT="]a few hours. The next day, remove the cord from the jar, pour the sugar liquid back into the[/FONT]
[FONT="]saucepan, reheat and cool it just as you did before. Pour the liquid back into the jar and reinsert[/FONT]
[FONT="]the cord with the crystals into it. More crystals will form. If you repeat this procedure every day the[/FONT]
[FONT="]crystal candy will grow bigger and bigger. When it has reached a size that pleases you, snip off any[/FONT]
[FONT="]excess string and enjoy.[/FONT]

[FONT="]Easter Mints Kids Can Make[/FONT]
[FONT="]1/3 c Soft butter[/FONT]
[FONT="]1/3 c Light corn syrup[/FONT]
[FONT="]1/2 ts Salt[/FONT]
[FONT="]1 ts Flavoring[/FONT]
[FONT="]3 1/2 c ( 1 lb ) sifted confectioner's sugar[/FONT]
[FONT="]Large bowl[/FONT]
[FONT="]Wooden spoon[/FONT]
[FONT="]Paper plates[/FONT]
[FONT="]Pencils[/FONT]
[FONT="]This is a no-cook recipe the children can mix with their hands. Flavor it with any of the liquid[/FONT]
[FONT="]flavorings in the supermarket, such as strawberry and lemon. If you want, you can instead divide it[/FONT]
[FONT="]into three portions and add a few drops of food coloring to tint it yellow, red, and green. The knead[/FONT]
[FONT="]a small amount of flavoring into each one. This recipe makes about 1 1/2 lbs of candy.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Help the children measure all the ingredients into the large bowl. They can take turns stirring it[/FONT]
[FONT="]with the wooden spoon until it becomes too stiff. Then they can knead it with their hands. They[/FONT]
[FONT="]should continue kneading until the dough is smooth.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Give each child a paper plate and a pencil. Tell them to turn their plates OVER and write their[/FONT]
[FONT="]names on the Bottom to prevent pencil lead from getting on their mints. Help them hold their[/FONT]
[FONT="]pencils correctly. Make sure they use upper and lower case letters.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Give each child a portion of dough on his or her plate. The children can pinch off pieces, roll them[/FONT]
[FONT="]into balls, and press them lightly with a fork to make a fancy butter mint. Children who cannot roll[/FONT]
[FONT="]the candy into balls can make snakes, cut the snakes into pieces, and press the pieces with a fork.[/FONT]
[FONT="]They might eat the pieces with the fork, but that's ok too.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Leave the mints on the plates and refrigerate them for 30 minutes, until they become firm. Easter[/FONT]
[FONT="]Mints taste even better the second day, if you can keep everyone from eating them all on the first[/FONT]
[FONT="]day. Cover with plastic wrap and keep them in the refrigerator.[/FONT]

[FONT="]can opener attachment to open cans (much more fun struggling with one of these things than to[/FONT]
[FONT="]take a conventional can opener). The oranges serve as both a drink and a dessert. Poke a hole in[/FONT]
[FONT="]one end and after all the juice has been sucked out, open it and eat the flesh. The tuna and beans,[/FONT]
[FONT="]of course, are eaten just as they come from the can. The bandanas serve as little tablecloths,[/FONT]

[FONT="]2 c granulated sugar[/FONT]
[FONT="]Heavy cord[/FONT]
[FONT="]1 c water[/FONT]
[FONT="]The book says to put one cup of water into a small saucepan, pour 2 cups of granulated sugar into[/FONT]
[FONT="]the water, heat the water and sugar on the stove over a medium heat, continue stirring until the[/FONT]
[FONT="]sugar melts, keep adding sugar and stirring until it melts, stop adding sugar when you see that it[/FONT]
[FONT="]will no longer dissolve in the water (that is until you see sugar lying on the bottom of the[/FONT]
[FONT="]saucepan). Remove the pot from the stove, let the liquid cool until it is just warm. Pour the liquid[/FONT]
[FONT="]into a clean glass jar. Tie one end of a piece of heavy cord around the middle of a pencil. Place the[/FONT]
[FONT="]pencil over the top of the glass jar letting the cord fall into the liquid. Crystals will begin to form in[/FONT]
[FONT="]a few hours. The next day, remove the cord from the jar, pour the sugar liquid back into the[/FONT]
[FONT="]saucepan, reheat and cool it just as you did before. Pour the liquid back into the jar and reinsert[/FONT]
[FONT="]the cord with the crystals into it. More crystals will form. If you repeat this procedure every day the[/FONT]
[FONT="]crystal candy will grow bigger and bigger. When it has reached a size that pleases you, snip off any[/FONT]
