Make Your Own Chewing Gum Kit

I thought this would be a fun kit to do since chicle (what makes gum chewy) comes from the rainforest! You can order it now and save it until the last week of the rainforest to wrap things up. ;-)
I actually stumbled on this kit looking for "extras" for my world studies supplement (for when we study Brazil), but I thought it would be a good addition for AW's rainforest section too!
