Time for some good, clean fun with dozens of safe soap projects for kids ages 8-12. Using safe, readily-available ingredients in melt-and-pour recipes, along with a variety of tantalizing fragrances, additives, and colorants, kids will have a blast making molded bar and liquid soap, bath fizzies and salts, bubble baths, body powders, lip glosses, and more. Work with yummy scents such as chocolate, bubble gum, strawberry, watermelon, and coconut, and create sparkled, marbled, and confetti effects. Make adorable pie soaps that smell like real desserts, soap lollies, soaps with built-in sponges, mystery soaps with treasures inside, ladybug-shaped soap on a rope, dinosaur-egg surprise fizzies, and more. Suggestions for packaging let you turn your projects into great gifts.
