I can’t wait to try some of these activities with my PPCD students. For the toothpaste recipe, should we use baking soda or baking powder? It has baking soda next to materials but says baking powder when giving the measurements.
Oops! My mistake, that’s baking soda!
Awesome! Thank you! We will make this this week.
Great! Don’t be surprised if they don’t like it, it’s definitely not as “tasty” as all the kid toothpastes on the market today 🙂
