Marshmallow structures and a living room campout!

So tonight after the princess went to bed the prince and I set up a tent in the living room for a fun little camping "trip". We put down sleeping bags and pillows and were ready for a fun night!

After setting up the tent we made s'mores in the microwave. The prince decided to just eat the chocolate since the s'mores were "too messy!" He thoroughly enjoyed watching the marshmallows grow in the microwave though!

Then we grabbed a board from our train table and used it to start our project. We took marshmallows and tooth picks and started making all sorts of different creations. This project was fun, inexpensive (around $2 I believe), and was a great fine motor tool!

After our creations were made we cleaned up and called it a night, we actually both managed to sleep all night in that small tent. Though I must admit my back was not happy with me in the morning, however my little prince could not have been happier :)
