Making Jello Worms
Use bendy straws and pack them together very tightly in a tall container 
2 packages of strawberry Jello
1 package of gelatin 
3/4 cup of whipping cream
3 cups of boiling water
10 drops of green food colouring
Stir together boiling water, Jello, and gelatin.  Let cool for about 15 minutes then add food colouring, and whipping cream.  Pour into straws and put in the fridge for 8 hours.  Run the straws under warm water to squish the worms out.  

The boys went crazy for this snack
They were pretending they were birds while they ate the worms
