AnonyMouse_39602 Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 Why pretend jelly ? Ours love using it as a sensory play item though most of it ends up in their mouths , maybe that's why you want pretend . Have you googled or Pinterest ? Quote
AnonyMouse_19920 Posted January 13, 2015 Author Posted January 13, 2015 i will have jelly in a tray as a sensory play item but wanted it to look like party food rather than the usual pretend foods we have :0)x Quote
AnonyMouse_19782 Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 At special occasions at pre school the children often ask for jelly, I have made traffic light jelly in a big mould for them I've even made it in plastic champagne flutes tipped the jelly to one one side while it sets and then fill with a different flavour the children think it's wonderful and although I've never done it there is a way of doing it in orange skins so that you cut it into little boat shapes. I would definitely give them the real thing, why not, it's not like it's you usual snack - it may make the activities more memorable, especially if they get to help. You can buy veggie jelly too.
