  • thats pretty wish this is how we learnt about it. what was the result?

  • @Skidgate - It turned out really well. Felt like hard rubber, and had no odor at all. I kept my first one in a cabinet for 7 years to show the kids how well the technique worked.

  • I like how you had the kids dress up. All my 7th graders mummify their own chickens. It's a great motivator!

  • This was a fun class! I truely wish all teachers could be like this. So what happened to the update on the chicken?
