Rainbow Jell-O Cups
A delicious and colorful activity for kids of all ages
Equipment
- food scale optional
- glass measuring cup
Ingredients
- 6 packages colored gelatin, such as Jell-O one in each rainbow color
Instructions
- Empty each Jello flavor into a plastic bag (so you can save the unused powder for next time).
- Prepare your first color (I used purple). Fill a glass measuring cup with 1/3 cup hot water.
- Measure two tablespoons of Jello powder (approximately 28 grams if using a food scale) and mix into hot water.
- Add 1/3 cup cold water to mixture.
- Divide liquid Jello between 6 serving glasses.
- Chill until set, at least two hours.
- Repeat steps 2-6 with each additional flavor of Jello until you have a rainbow!
Notes
This recipe is designed to use 1/3 of each package of Jello, so you’ll be able to do it again two more times! If you’d like to make more or less Jello, I suggest challenging your kids to put their math skills to work to figure out how much Jello powder and water you’ll need.
