Rainbow-ish.

Some days, it's ho hum at home without Roundabout. Full-day Kindergarten is a long time to be without your big sister when you're a three year old boy. On such days, we pull out all the stops all in the name of staying busy and having a little fun.

This day:


After a full six rounds of pouring, mixing, and waiting, we ended up with a creation that even Rainbow Brite herself would be proud of! It was a full day's work and was nothing short of an absolute

Want to make one for yourself?

Rainbow Brite Jell-O
1 small box strawberry jello
1 small box apricot jello
1 small box lemon jello
1 small box lime jello
1 small box blue raspberry jello
1 small box grape jello

Begin with the grape jello. Mix slightly less than 2/3 cup water into jello powder. Pour into 9x13 pan. Let it cool and stiffen in the refrigerator. Continue with the rest of the colors; blue, green, yellow, orange, and red. Cut the jigglers and you'll have a fruitylicious rainbow! If you're really in the mood, try cutting them into fun shapes with cookie cutters!
