    If you can get a copy of "Cooking Art" at your library, it is full of
    non-cook projects. Try the Gryphon House website for "free activities"
    from Cooking Art ... Not sure what they have on their site at this time,
    but here's the URL:

    Following is one of the activities Gryphon House has for free access
    (there area bout ten others) from Cooking Art:
         This one is a non-bake or cook dough
    for making logs for building a "log house"
    or other free sculpture ---
