Im thinking of making some of these with my children to give as gifts for the holidays and wonding if there was any simple craft instructions out there that would be good for kids to make. I was thinking maybe bath fizz ball drop in's these are always sort of fun for kids at bath time? Any other ideas?

We made this "Miracle Milk Bath" (Betty Crocker, Holiday edition, November 1998) for holiday gifts. It was very silky and felt great on your skin. At the time we made the basic recipe, although I'm sure you could add essential oils like lavender or jasmine to create something that is also pleasing to the senses with the scent of your choice. The ingredients are simple and inexpensive, which allows for a little extra money to purchase attractive containers. Have fun! 2 cups salt 2 cups baking soda 2 cups nonfat dry milk Mix all ingredients. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 year. To use, add 1 cup of mixture to bath water. Makes 6 cups.

Thank you so much i will use this recipe with the kids. I did manage to find some very cute decorative containers at a local dollar store type place.
