Want a great activity for you kids that takes time, burns energy, and ends up with something useful?
Have I got the activity for you!
HOMEMADE BUTTER.
That’s right! You can do this at home, with stuff you probably have. I remembered doing this at some point during elementary school and thought it was fairly simple. When I looked it up last week, my memory was correct! This could not be any easier.
Instructions:
- Add 1/4 teaspoon salt to 2 cups heavy cream.
- Shake, mix, churn, dance, etc. until it becomes butter!
- Pour off the liquid whey and
- Enjoy!!
I decided to try a ziplock bag but then thought that a ziplock bag might not be able to hold under the strength of a 2 year old boy, so I put his back in the carton for mixing.
It was so much fun! It took up quite a bit of time, and the kids loved tasting it at the end.
