Licorice Toothpaste

Sister-Be-Gone Repellent Spray (a.k.a. Isabelle's Smell)
It's brown, it's stinky, and it's definitely going to keep my sister out of
my room. However, it is not permanent. Sister keeps coming back to
spy on me. I need a secret, special ingredient.
Update: I have found it!
Status: Success! This one is going to be BIG!

vegetable) when your mom and dad aren't looking. A good idea, but
it's eating everything, including my skin! Ow!

Edible Socks
Socks you can eat so you don't have to put them away on laundry day.
Makes a good snack or when you've left your lunch at home, too! Yum!
Update: Don't use fruit roll-ups. Too sticky.
