Cascadian Farm Organic Goodness

Thanks for all your great feedback on our DIY Glue and Make Your Own Crayons.  Have you tried them yet with your kids?
"This is either every teachers Joy or nightmare"
 I know these can be messy, but hopefully they are lots of fun for you and your kids! So now let's really make a mess! Here's a fun and easy way to make your own finger paints with your kids.
 
Ingredients:
1 c. cornstarch
1/2 c. water
1/3 c. grated organic soap
natural colorants

Directions:
Melt grated organic soap and 1/2 cup boiling water in pan over low heat. Add cornstarch, blend well, set aside and allow to thicken. Divide into small reusable containers and add natural colorants. (It would be great to use containers that you would otherwise recycle or throw away.)

Hello,I have always baught Clifford Crunch for myself and my boy,(which we both have a wheat sensitivity), but i was enjoying a bowl of it when i noticed it was lighter in color makeing me think that it had changed. Well it did but now there is wheat starch in it and i was very disapointed because I thaught that an (Organic whole grain OAT cereal would never have wheat in it . If i racall it never did before the GREAT NEW TASTE that it says on the box. Oh also, why did you add more sugar too? I guess ill have to find a new cereal to eat and give up my every night addiction to clifford crunch:( Your wrecked my snack and for many other people who ate it because it didnt have wheat in it.
