FHE Idea

We went to the Ogden Raptor's Game a few weeks ago! America First Credit Union (that's where Jake works) gave us free tickets. We had lots of fun! But that is not the FHE idea... scroll down.


When we got to the entry gate and showed our tickets, the ticket ladies handed us these cute little "Carmel Cob's" It's just carmel corn shaped to look like corn on the cob. So, here comes the FHE idea..
If you have little ones, cut out some paper in the shape of corn husks and let your kids color them while you (and maybe the older kids) make the carmel corn and shape it. Once the corn and the husks are done, place the corn in the husk so it looks like a corn on the cob. You may want to put the camel corn on a popsickle stick and then wrap the corn husks around them... this will probably be easier for the kids to hold and keep their hands from getting super sticky. That can be your entire Family Home Evening or you can end it by watching a movie with your kids and your cob, or playing fun farm games.

We aren't blessed with children yet, so we haven't done this FHE. If you try it, let me know how it goes! I'd love to know what went well and what might need to be changed! Hope you have fun!

You "aren't blessed with children yet." LOL! I love it! You know, you could still do it, Jacob can be child like at times. Kidding! When I have kids, and it's family night, I'm just gonna say, "Alright, it's time to go to Auntie Pees and Uncle J's house!" :)
