How to make it
Make sure the pasta is cool before play. It is taste-safe, but noodles are soft and long, so watch they don't stuff too much in at once.
1Cook the pasta
Grown-up step: Boil the spaghetti until soft, drain it, and let it cool fully.
2Color it
Split the pasta into 3 bags. Add 10 drops of coloring and a spoonful of water to each. Shake.
3Lay out the paper
Put the cardstock on the baking sheet.
4Slap and drag
Let your toddler grab a handful and slap it down. Drag it around to leave color streaks.
5Pick up and peek
Lift the noodles to see the squiggles underneath.
6Dry the art
Lay the paper flat to dry for 1 hour.
Edie's tipDo this right before bath time. Food coloring stains hands for a few hours.
