King Julien’s love potion. You'll fall in LOVE with MADLY MADAGASCAR!
Kids would love to get their hands on
King Julien’s magical love potion – and now they can! Here, we’ll provide some
fun, kid-friendly recipes to make “love potions” this Valentine’s Day.
BUBBLY PINK LOVE
POTION
Kids will love this
easy to make (and delicious) “love potion!” All you need 1 can of pink lemonade
concentrate, 4 cups of raspberry sherbet, and 1 can of lemon/lime soda, and
water. All you need to do is mix the lemonade concentrate with the amount of
water it lists on the instructions in a large pitcher. Then, in a blender,
combine the sherbet with 4 cups of the lemonade mixture, and pour about a cup
into individual glasses. Lastly, fill each glass the rest of the way with the
soda – the mixture will bubble and really look like a love potion!
LOVE SPELL PERFUME
Making perfumes at
home is actually really easy and can be a fun activity for kids this
Valentine’s Day! You need distilled water, fragrance oils (and scent you or the
kids want!), and Polysorbate 80. All you have to do is mix your distilled water
with the Polysorbate 80 in a spray bottle. Then, mix your fragrance oils in a
separate container, and add them to your water mixture; shake vigorously. Use
fragrances like rose, lavendar, etc. to really amp up the “love spell” part of
this perfume!
MAGIC SAND
Using a glass bottle
with a cork or lid and different colored sand is a fun way to create a “magic
sand” love spell (and it makes for a great decoration)! All you need to do is
layer different colors of sand in a glass container (colors like red, pink and
white work best for V-Day). Before putting the cork or lid on the bottle,
invite your kids to say a few words about something or someone that they love –
then tell them that once the bottle is sealed, it will represent that person or
thing, and to take care of the bottle and keep it close.
LOVE POTION TEA
Making this tea will
require a little help from mom and dad, but it’s ingredients are rumored to
spark feelings of love! You will need rosemary, black tea, thyme, nutmeg, fresh
mint leaves, fresh rose petals, lemon leaves, and water. Put all of these
ingredients in a tea kettle and bring to a boil. Serve with honey or sugar and
lemon, to taste.
