I was hopping around the internet this morning when I came across
this happy, lovely round up on Tatertots & Jello. I thought to myself "how brilliant!" and immediately clicked on over to
Shindig Parties To Go to see that what I thought was an edible memory game was really a bunch of happy in a jar (which is also pretty nifty). So...taking a cue I thought "why not?" and so I present to you an edible memory game, perfect for Hanukkah, Christmas and most any other holiday.
Materials
*1 bag of wrapped flat bottomed candies (like Kisses or Patties or Hanukkah Coins)
*Printable sheet from Shindig Parties To Go, round stickers, labels or a handy decorative punch
*assorted paper for decorative punch
Dump out bag of candies. I used world coins from
here. They are nice and flat and perfect for my scalloped paper punch.
Count out an even number of coins and punch out paper bits. I had 24 coins so needed 12 different prints of paper.
Smother paper bits with glue stick and place one each onto a chocolate coin or candy. You can also print out your own designs on round sticky labels or use happy holiday stickers.
Flip over and play a coupe of rounds. Save this for a party and the kiddos can keep the candy they "win". Candies can be stashed into handmade bags like
these! Happy Holidays!
LOVE this idea! I can't wait for us to try it in two weeks.
