We are at that stage in the summer holidays where the hustle and bustle of Christmas and New Year is over and the excitement of new games and toys has worn off. Kids are getting the "I'm boreds" and parents are starting to pull their hair out.

Your children can make their own edible jewellery, using jelly beans and dental floss. The dental floss is strong enough to hold the weight of the jelly beans and easy for little fingers to handle. A blunt-nosed No. 18 tapestry needle will glide through those sweeties easily.
