DIY Snowglobe
As we sit here and watch the snow pile up outside, it’s make us want to play with some snow inside! Well, we obviously can’t do that, but we can make a snow globe instead. Warning: this got pretty messy, glitter wise, my husband sat in horror as he watched us get glitter all over the floor & table ;).
You only need a few things here; a jar, water, clear glue and some glitter. We also took one of our squishy dinos from the Valentines Day cards I bought from the dollars store and glued it to the inside of the cover of the jar.
First, get your jar and fill it up about 3/4 quarters of the way with water, then squirt in about 4 TBS of glue. Adding glue and water together thins out the glue, which is why you can put the dinosaur inside and it doesn’t get all sticky.
After you combine both the liquids add in some glitter. My advice, don’t just give your toddler free range of the glitter, unless you want to end up with about a quarter of a cup of it inside the jar (woops). You’re probably going to be okay with about 4 tsp of glitter. Once everything’s inside the globe jar, put the cover on and swirl it around! Congrats, you just made your self a snow globe!
