Jell-O Excavation

Today there was Jell-O Excavation on Westoak Drive. (Technically, it was Knox Gelatin, but that doesn't have quite the same ring to it). I mixed up some gelatin in a bundt pan and placed plastic dinosaurs inside. After Spencer's nap, the mold had set and we starting digging.


Spencer wasn't so sure about the texture at first - he wanted us to dig a few out for him and then he got into it. We also tried squirting colored water inside but that didn't have the effect I had hoped for. Once all the dinos had been recovered we spent a lot of time transferring the slimy stuff from one container to another.
