Gum Making

Tyson received a 'Make your own chewing gum kit 'for Christmas.
We finally pulled it out and had a little fun.
The kit included everything you needed from the gum base to the powdered sugar.

We melted the gum base and then added the corn syrup and flavorings.
It was sticky... duh :)
But it wasn't too messy. On the 'Messy Scale' I'd give it a 5.
We had a fun time.
The kids enjoyed cutting out shapes and rolling it.

And then we got to taste it...
Hummm...
CCHHEEWWWWWWW

The gum was a bit hard and the flavor didn't last long.
But, it was fun!
I like gift activities like this.
Maybe next year we'll do 'Make your own Gummies Kit'
