SOTW suggested mummifying a chicken as the activity for the chapter about Egyptians. (Who in the right mind would mummify a chicken?) We made a papier mache sarcophagus instead. We wrapped up one of their dolls in strips of linen and made a pyramid out of couch cushions. The girls pretended to be the Sphinx while Chris (the grave robber) looted the tomb of treasure (mardi gras beads). It was really (messy) fun.

I love it! It sounds like fun. Wish I could have been there.
I mummified a chicken just the other day. Thing was, I was trying to cook it.
