Anthill Jelly Popsicle!

Have you ever seen how an Anthill looks like? 

Well, the children are going to make one and show you now! 

Ingredients required:

Konniyaku jelly

Brown food colouring

Wholemeal biscuits

Raisins

Gummy worms (optional)

After the water is boiled, place the jelly and mixed it with brown food colouring. With carefulness, the children are allowed to pour it into the popsicle holder. It definitely helps in their fine motor skill by balancing the jug and aiming it well while pouring it.

Before preparing the mixture of jelly, the children shall do some pounding of the biscuits into small crumbs so that it could be added to create the 'soil effect'. Through this activity, they learnt that from a round piece of biscuit, the shape could be changed with the strength of their hands by pounding it.

Look at how focused they are! Pound, pound, pound, pound, pound and pound!

Let me taste the biscuit crumbs! I couldn't wait! Yummy yummy!

Let us add the ants and a few worms to accompany them.

Once ready, it is placed in the fridge to harden it. Finally, it's the time that they have been waiting for! 

Let's enjoy our Anthill like an ice-cream!

Like to try some Daddy and Mummy? We can try making it with round or any other shapes of food containers too!
