I occasionally held something here and there for him, but it was such a simple and self play activity.
#Marshmallows and toothpicks how to
He needed some instruction and showed him how to make a box, and then after that, it was all him. I personally just set left toothpicks and marshmallows out on the table and let my 4 year old go to town. You can also give some instruction or leave it totally up to them to lead the activity. You may want to put some paper towels down or tablecloth down first for easy clean up but this wasn’t that messy, so you don’t have to if you don’t want too.
Put the marshmallows and toothpicks out, and let the kids (or adults!) play and build. Marshmallows (the regular size worked better for my 4 year old then the mini ones, but we’ve done both!).Here is the supplies needed for this easy kid activity: This Marshmallow Building Activity is quite simple. (My two year old just ate the marshmallows though and made me nervous with the toothpicks so maybe not so young, but my four year old was so great with this activity!) Marshmallow Building Activity for Kids: Supplies and Instructions I always did this activity when I was older, but you can really do this activity at any age. He actually did pretty good building and it kept him busy for well over 30 minutes. It kept him so busy building and he was learning at the same time. I gave my building loving boy toothpicks, marshmallows at the table and he went to town while I worked for my laptop. My husband was complaining earlier in the day that nobody was eating the marshmallows and they were getting stale… and viola! An easy activity was born. My 4 year old was looking for something to do and I wanted to get a few things done on my computer. I even built and played with marshmallows and toothpicks as a grown adult for team building exercises in college and work.īuilding with Marshmallows and toothpicks, and other variations too, is a great activity for any age… even toddlers and preschoolers! I remember in middle school building with marshmallows and toothpicks to see what team could build the strongest bridge and then in high school, the biggest tower. Building with marshmallows and toothpicks is a classic activity.
