You don’t need ice to go fishing this winter! The challenge of hooking the candy canes will test even the best hand-eye coordination skills. This game is budget friendly and great for kids of all ages. This slime smells and tastes amazing! The super easy recipe can be made with marshmallows or marshmallow fluff. Once you’ve made your batches of slime, get your kids to twist their own canes or make up new holiday shapes! Get your littlest ones excited about the holiday season. This simple candy cane craft exposes little ones to different textures and tools. After your kids paint their template with sponges, help them glue on stretched cotton balls stripes. An adorable addition to the holiday décor!

Grab lots of candy canes for this awesome learning experience! Using only candy canes, build sturdy bridges for cars and animals to cross. For older students, increase the distance between the boxes to explore physics concepts like gravity and weight distribution Work on pattern-building skills with a dot-to-dot painting session. You can choose to give your students AB, AAB, or AABB patterns to follow. Alternatively, let them have creative fun by designing their own patterns!

STEAM activities aren’t just for big kids! These educational activities are full of all kinds of candy cane fun. Little learners can build elf houses and other shapes on top of printable templates. Note too that it is performed under fairly normal lighting and lasts probably less than 20 seconds. As I explained in the pamphlet I sold at one time, it is more an interlude than a routine. (Apologies if I posted the video link before and just can't remember. I should also point out that my routine cannot be done with the traditional dancing cane setup.)

Transform the 4-of-a-kind card game into a holiday extravaganza! Place a candy cane for each player in a circle. Then, take turns flipping over and collecting cards. First one to get 4-of-a-kind sneakily grabs a candy cane. Everyone else has to then scramble to grab one!There’s no better way to spend a cold Winter’s day than by engaging in a scavenger hunt! Hide candy canes all around the house or classroom. You can either let the kids find them on their own or make it a quest with riddles and puzzles to solve along the way. One of the most effective uses of a dancing cane that I ever saw was done by Mark Wilson in a Magic Land of Allakazam episode. He, Nani and Rebo had just entered a haunted house and the (invisible) poltergeist apparently grabbed the cane out of Mark's hand and it flew out of his hand before returning. That's it. Just one basic move. So it wasn't so much a dancing cane as a "haunted" cane. But it was very effective. And since I had not learned the working of the dancing cane, it fooled me badly. For the older readers, it is probably the way it would look if George or Marion Kirby grabbed a cane out of Cosmo Topper's hand. Come to think of it, Cosmo would look quite natural carrying a cane. The Topper character is probably trademarked, but would be an interesting idea for a magic act. I can see in my mind's eye Cosmo doing the multiplying bottles:-) Anyone know if Leo G. Carroll was an amateur magician like some other TV and movie stars? Which liquid dissolves candy canes the fastest? Find out with this cool experiment. Kids can practice the scientific method by making hypotheses, detailing their observations, and recording the results. Turn complex coding into a fun and easy activity! Grab pipe cleaners and different color beads. Then, create color patterns for your kids to follow to learn the basic principles of coding algorithms.
