Expert Tips

School glue is a great glue for little ones, but it can take a while to dry. If you want a craft that the kids can take home that day or are too impatient for school glue to dry, then try using a tacky glue like Beacon 3-in-1 glue

Variations

Stems – If you don’t have a candy apple stick or wooden skewer, try a popsicle stick instead
