From , former About.com Guide

This is an easy gift you can make in just a few minutes. All you need is a laundry scoop, candy, plastic wrap, ribbon, and these directions shared by a visitor nicknamed Kit-Kat.

  • Age Guideline: 6 Years and Up
  • Time Required: 10 minutes (Does not include drying time)

The above age and time guidelines are estimates. This project can be modified to suit other ages and may take more or less time depending on your circumstances.

Materials Needed:

  • Laundry Scoop
  • Hugs and Kisses Candy
  • Clear or Colored Plastic Wrap
  • Ribbon

Instructions:
Make sure the laundry scoop is clean and dry. Fill it with Hershey's Hugs and Kisses. Cut a large piece of plastic wrap. Set the scoop in the middle of the plastic wrap.

Fold the plastic wrap over so the two ends meet at the scoop handle. Pull the plastic wrap tightly around the scoop and gather around the handle. Tie a ribbon around the handle to hold the plastic wrap in place. Tie a note onto the scoop that says "A scoop of Hugs and Kisses for you".
