Popcorn!
"My pick of the day site is published by the Popcorn Board, an association created to increase popcorn sales. From the very first pop to the very last kernel, there is fun behind every click. Best educational nuggets are found in the Encyclopedia Popcornica, where you can explore the hows and whys of popcorn science, history and trivia. "Americans consume 17 billion quarts of popped popcorn annually or 58 quarts per man, woman and child. It is one of the most wholesome and economical foods available.""

Pop Weaver: Science Fair Projects
"Which popcorn cooking method pops the highest volume? How does the moisture level of corn kernels affect the texture of popped corn? In addition to classroom use, I think anyone of these seven easy experiments would be a fun birthday party activity for young scientists. But my advice to middle-school students looking for award-winning science fair ideas is to only use these experiments to jumpstart your own scientific creativity."

Ohio Corn: Kids CORNer
"Don’t let the plain looking entrance fool you, there is plenty here for elementary-age students to learn about corn production and corn products. Each of the three activity groups (too bad they don’t have better titles) is divided into four pages of learning, experiments and multiple-choice quizzes. Don’t miss the microwave recipe for creating biodegradable plastic from corn starch and corn oil. You’ll find it in Activities Group 3: Become an Environmental Scientist. The teacher guides include a glossary and answer keys."

NorthPole.com: Mrs. Claus’ Cookbook
"At the NorthPole.com, Mrs. Claus has been very busy collecting and sorting holiday recipes from her all friends, so her cookbook has hundreds of recipes. Focusing on sweets (with four out of six categories) her collection includes Creamy Chocolate Truffles (which actually look pretty easy), Two Minute Microwave Fudge and Microwave Peanut Brittle. Each recipe can be emailed to a friend; and the link to send Mrs. Claus your own recipe is on the cookbook start page."

Mrs. Claus’ Kitchen
"I immediately liked Mrs. Claus because she begins with five rules for the kitchen, including my favorite: Always clean up when you are finished. Recipes are presented in three categories: Elf Bedtime Snacks, Santa’s Favorites, and Reindeer Cravings. All the recipes are kid-easy and full of kid-appeal. For example, did you know reindeer love wormy apples? You can make them by spreading peanut butter on apple slices, and topping with yummy, gummy worms. Most of these recipes don’t even require baking!"

"Mrs. Claus’ twenty-five recipes are divided into three categories: Elf Bedtime Snacks, Santa’s Favorites, and Reindeer Cravings. All her recipes are easy and full of kid-appeal. For example, did you know reindeer love wormy apples? You can make them by spreading peanut butter on apple slices, and topping with yummy, gummy worms. Most of these recipes don’t even require baking! When you’re ready to leave the kitchen, there’s lots to explore in the rest of Santa’s Village."
