VISIT TO YANKEE CANDLE

We took a trip to YANKEE CANDLE

in Massachusetts to let Sissy and Bobo make their own candles and watch them make them. The one on the left is Bobo's and the one on the right is Sissy's. After they let the wax in layers by color and scent they were able to put a straw down on the inside of the glass to form the lines like Sissy did. Then they handed their candles to the person in charge and she put them under baking lights. We walked around the store and went back to get them before we left. You were also able to dip tapers of all sizes and plastic shapes. In their kitchen the kids wanted to get chocolate pancake mix and maple syrup. Mommy, Auntie Lala and Auntie Icky all wanted the fudge. It was a great learning experience to see how candles are made. I still remember when I was younger and we went on a field trip to STURBRIDGE VILLAGE and made our own candles.
