Give-a-way: Shrinky Dinks Monster Lab {creativity for kids}

  Creativity for Kids has done it again! They have created another great craft kit for kids. This one allows you to color, bake, and shrink your most creative creations ever. Everything you need is included in the kit. Two winners will receiver a Shrinky Dink Monster Lab Kit from Creativity for Kids. (Retail value: 19.99)

We had the opportunity to try this kit, and my boys could not have loved it more!

They love coloring and creating and this kit brings those two things to life.

This kit has a 3-D playscape to display everything you colored and created. My boys have spent hours using their imaginations and playing monster with this, after creating it.

Here is how it works:

First you color the shrinky dinks.

 When you have all the shrinky dinks colored, you lay them out on a cookie sheet covered in aluminum foil and put them in the oven to bake.

  If you have never done shrinky dinks before, here are a few tips: They curl while baking and that is part of the process. But if they curl up too much and touch themselves or each other, you need to separate them right away while still hot. Just pull the cookie sheet out of the oven and use a flat metal knife. Then put them back in and continue baking. We also learned that these can be reheated if they get bubbly or have a part that just doesn't seem to shrink right the first time. If you follow the directions and space them out and watch carefully, they turn out great. Sometimes they need a little more time to bake, so have patience but don't leave oven unattended. Of course when using a hot oven this part is for adults only. But the kids really get a kick out of watching these shrink through the oven door!

 After they are done and cooled, you get to add all kinds of things to them and place them in the 3-D Monster Lab. So fun! This would be a really fun activity for kids to do for a Halloween Party!
