Its a Large box that has been coated inside with 4 black bin bags
make hole at the side to fit a hand inside
then Decorate the outside box like so

then Cook spaghetti and dye it Red
once cooled add to the box and put a little water inside the box to make the Spaghetti wet
add some wrapped sweets

Then let the children pick there own !!!!
It feels like worms and the kids love it .....
