    Gather the ingredients and things you'll need. If you wish to make an edible menorah, use frosting instead of the glue. If this is just a decoration project, use glue instead of the frosting.

    "Glue" the marshmallows together. Pick a marshmallow and put a dab of either glue or frosting on the side of it. Place and glue it against another marshmallow. Dab some on the bottom of the tenth marshmallow. It's up to the creator of the menorah if the presentation gets glued on the cardboard or not.

    Make "paint". In a bowl, pour a little amount of milk and a few drops of food coloring. Mix them together to get your "paint". Have a variety of dyed milk colors for kids to choose.
