Fishing for Fortunes

This fun-loving fortune-telling session employs tasty tokens that double as take-home treats.

What You Need
  • Velvet-covered table
  • Round glass bowl, such as a goldfish bowl
  • Treats like chocolate coins and plastic toys
Instructions
  1. Magic Wanda, the fun-loving mom, invites children to her private velvet-covered fortune-telling table in the corner of the room. One by one, Wanda asks children to close their eyes and retrieve a take-home treat from her crystal ball (the goldfish bowl) in the center of the table. Based on the item, Wanda predicts the child's future: a chocolate coin equals a raise in allowance; a gummy rat foretells a pet in the child's future; a chocolate soccer ball means fame to come in the sports world; a candy pacifier indicates a new sibling; a chocolate medallion points to a future Olympian.

Tips:
Make sure all the goodies are true treats; one testing child didn't appreciate the travel-sized tube of toothpaste ("You'll never have another cavity!") when her friends were devouring chocolate coins.
