Directions

  1. Follow the directions on the box of gelatin on how to make. The adult should handle the hot water, but your child can help you stir! Pour the liquid gelatin into the 9x13 pan and put in the fridge to set.
  2. Once the gelatin is set, give your toddler cookie cutters to press into the gelatin.
  3. Use the spatula to remove the jigglers from the pan and on to the plate.
  4. Enjoy!
