 Biodegradable Toys - Magic Nuudles

        Magic Nuudles!!!  Children and parents have been asking me where they can buy the Magic Nuudles the first grade uses in art class.  Jo-Anns has them for $3.49 a bag.  You can get free white Nuudles if you receive a shipped box that contains them instead of styrofoam peanuts for packing material.  Check to see if the white packing pieces can easily be squeezed and if you can moisten them and have them stick to your finger or to each other. If so, these are made of cornstarch and are very similar to the colored Magic Nuudles in the store.  Children have a lot of creative fun building with these Nuudles.  To dispose of the Magic Nuudles, just run them under water, or flush them!
