my 5th grade daughter has to do a show & tell project on the melacha memachek-smoothing. She has to give something out to all her classmates, but it can't cost more than $.30 a piece. Does anyone have any ideas for me?

A cookie with frosting to smooth on? (not a problem to put on frosting on Shabbos, but can't smooth it for decoration)

Mini silly putty? (don't know if you can find for under 30 cents)

Piece of sandpaper (cut into quarters or less) and small piece of wood?
Wood letters - 36 for under $3 - https://www.walmart.com/ip/Pla.....80439
Sandpaper - 6 sheets for under $3.50 (cut into as many as you need) - https://www.walmart.com/ip/Gat.....60193

What about flattening a taffy, making a shape out of it or clay?

Maybe an iron? Perler beads?

Maybe a fuzzy coat, or blanket or rug or hook rug, to flatten hairs, yarns standing up

A flat iron for hair?

You can do artwork from cut twizzlers to iron like peeler beads

There are some great ideas here!

The only thing I can think to add is using soap to make lather

(or using the "candle glue" to hold a candle in place).

Have fun! Let us know what she decides!
