Candy Bibles

I made some candy Bibles for my 5th grade Religion class. They are really easy to make and you just need a few simple supplies.

Supply List:

Black heavy card stock

Ruler

Pencil

Scissors

White paper

Fine tip black marker

Hershey's Nuggets

Elmer's glue

Thin paint brush

Toothpick

Very thin red ribbon

Directions:

Using the ruler and pencil measure the black card stock into 2.25" x 1.50" rectangle. Cut out the rectangles out with sharp scissors.

Using the ruler and pencil  measure and cut out 1.75" x 1"rectangles on simple white copy paper.

Using a thin paint brush apply a thin layer in the middle of the black card stock. Press two Hershey's Nuggets on the glue side by side. Adjust the Nuggets so that the border of the black around them is even.

You can buy a bag of Nuggets at Target or the grocery store.

Fold the rectangle of white paper in half and crease it. Unfold the paper and  with a fine tip black pen write a short Bible verse.

Leave plenty of space around the crease - because you are going to glue a red ribbon down the crease.

Using the small paint brush - paint a very thin layer of glue over the top of the Hershey Nuggets. Lay the rectangle over the Hershey Nuggets. Press the toothpick down the center to create a crease.

Cut the thin red ribbon into 1.5" pieces. Using a toothpick add a small amount of glue in the middle of the Nuggets. Apply the red ribbon and press into the glue.

These make cute treats for a Sunday school class, Religion class or a Bible study.
