Here's another 4-H project.

4H Cooking Class

One of the ladies in our group showed the girls how to make bread and gave them some ideas on different ways to use bread. The girls each got a HUGE chunk of bread dough and was able to try out some different ideas.

Here's a few that they came up with:

This is a turtle with raisins..and the braids were made by the girls. Cute, huh?

This is Hailey's tiny tiny tiny bread braid.

Hailey's snowflake

Aliya's tiny tiny tiny crescent roll (it is in front of the normal size roll)

Another 4-H Project

I have 2 words for you.....Mod Podge

I can't believe that some of these girls have not even heard of Modge Podge. haha! I use it all the time and it's so much fun.

I picked a pretty easy project for the girls. I found these wood frames for $1 at Michael's Craft Store..add some scrapbook paper and you're ready to go!!

Check out how cute they are:

4-H Project Clothespin Dolls

Here we are with another 4-H project. I got some of these a couple weeks ago and my kids had so much fun making them. I thought they would be a really fun 4-H project. It's always so fun to see what the kids come up with. My kids have made ninjas, police officers, princesses, themselves, etc.

So, here are some examples of what can be done with clothespin dolls:

4-H Projects

I LOVED doing 4-H as a kid. I looked into it last year but couldn't find a group close to us. I debated starting one but was worried about how big it may get - I mostly just wanted to do activities with my kids. Luckily, a neighbor is familiar with 4-H and we ended up doing a small group this summer with her kids, my kids, and 2 other moms. It has been fun and we split the classes up so we each teach twice. It will be fun when we enter our stuff into the fair this fall.

So, I'm gonna take a few posts and share what we are doing for 4-H.

Our first project was candle making. We made a couple different types of candles - and the girls even got to try their hand at old fashion candle making which ended up pretty interesting. Here is a pic of the finish project!
