This is a good science experiment/Valentine’s Day activity to do at home or with a group of kids who are OK with gelatin and the other ingredients used.
STEAM Powered Family has a super simple recipe for gummy candy that you can make whatever flavors and shapes you like, but this time of year it would be great to use red or purple and heart-shaped molds to make sweet Valentine’s Day heart candies.
There’s not a lot of prep involved if you have candy molds already and can make a quick trip to the grocery store, but kids should have fun making and eating these candies and learning about how gummy candies work (and how they’re related to slime).
Get the recipe and all the details from STEAM Powered Family.
