Mr. Peanut

Katie's class has a money system for discipline issues (good & bad). The day before Christmas break, the class had an auction. Katie used the majority of her money to buy Mr. Peanut. He turns peanuts into peanut butter. After a stop at the grocery store to purchase peanuts, we gave it a try. I was pretty impressed by how much peanut butter was made by a few peanuts. We used a 1/4 of the big bag and had enough peanut butter to make 3 sandwiches (Alex doesn't care for peanut butter & jelly).

Here's Maddie & Will eating their sandwiches. Katie had the first sandwich and was done with the process at this point...I think she found a book to read!!

This is the mess...

I'll have to take a picture of Katie with Mr. Peanut to include in this post...
