You are probably thinking this is perfect to find out where your teenager has been all night. We know, it's tempting.The Electric Shocking Liar Game is for ages 14 & up and is a great party game! With a built-in lie detector, it will display the truth of an answer on a handy LED meter with two settings, truth and lie, and a light-up spectrum in between. Just have the accused put his or her hand in the strap, and the machine will monitor the person's vital statistics, to be used as a point of comparison during questioning. If, when answering a question, all of the lie levels light up, the liar will receive a nasty shock!

Funny Face Food

So we've all seen the FUNNY FACE pancake at IHOP...

Well after eating breakfast there, I decided (like MANY moms have already done) to make lunch 'FUN' today. :-)

There are PLENTY of variations of this idea and you could get VERY creative (Check out this awesome example on Mess for Less)!!  The good thing is that you can sneak in healthy foods and kids will try them (hopefully) just because they LOOK fun!  So, my Plain Jane daughter had an introductory fun lunch today.  We'll definitely do this again and try some more daring things...

So I just put peanut butter on a slice of bread and used a cup as a cookie cutter and cut them out.  I used raisins for the eyes and that's cantaloupe for the mouth.  When she was done eating, she wanted more (and it had to be an entire face... so I was glad it was so basic).... and the awesome thing is she usually doesn't eat cantaloupe!!  YAY for fun tricks... hahahaha...

Painting Popcorn FUN!

Thanks to Living Locurto for inspiring this rainy day FUN!  We didn't have large marshmallows but man I WISH we would have!  And I can ASSURE you that we WILL be doing this again and we will be trying it with marshmallows.  

So here's the gist... you pour little cups of milk (we used regular milk... but you can use sweetened condensed milk too) and add food coloring.  You pop a bag of popcorn.  And... you paint it!

The cool part is... if the kids eat it... NO BIG DEAL!  

We didn't have paint brushes (this was TOTALLY a last minute craft because we were getting stir crazy with the AWFUL weather), so we dunked the popcorn.  Not as much fun to eat that way because it got mushy and whatnot... but I laid out a piece of wax paper and A decorated the paper with colorful popcorn and had a BLAST!  

Enjoy...

YAY!  Thanks HH readers for sharing pics of your adorable kiddos painting popcorn too!!  Glad you enjoyed it!!!
