Soap Balls - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 c. Ivory Snow
    1/8 c. water
    food coloring
Preparation
    Whipped soap can be made with either soap or detergent.
    Soap retains color in foam better and is easier to clean up, too.
    Soap flakes give a better texture than powdered soap.
    The child makes whipped soap himself.
    First, s/he pours water into mixing bowl and adds soap flakes.
    S/he beats soapy water with eggbeater until mixture is frothy, but not stiff.
    (If soap gets too stiff, it will be too difficult to use because it gets too slippery to apply. Also it will crack when it dries.)
    S/he stirs in color (food color or tempera).
    Colors will be pale.
    You can use without color to look like snow.
