Make your own calming glitter jar!
Fun for kids and adults--don't take my word for it--make one!
You'll need a Mason jar...or a bottle...
Some glitter glue and some chunky and fine glitter.
The glitter glue gives the liquid a different viscosity
and makes the swirls of glitter more lifelike!
Put about 2 tablespoons of glitter glue into the jar.
(disregard the super messy desk!)

add 1 cup of hot water and some glitter...
whisk the concoction to break up the glitter glue a tad...

Add fine glitter until there is about a 1/2 to 3/4 inch layer on the bottom.
fill the jar with water, leave about 1 inch at the top for shaking room!

It settles quickly.

We added some chunkier glitter and a few flower sequins too!
Then we added just 1 drop of Neon food coloring.
1 drop of pink...

1 drop of blue...

shake shake shake!

Settles after about 2 minutes or so...



So fun to watch the glitter tornado vortex of swirly fun!
Some people use this for time out...not me.
I use it as a reward jar...like if they clean their room or do
something nice for someone else, they can sit and use it.
I am all about positive reinforcement!
Perfect sensory experience for little minds!
Linking up to THESE parties this week!
