HOW TO MAKE, The holidays are quickly approaching, and I Spy jars would make an excellent gift for any child in your life. 온라인카지노

Also ideal for car drives or, my current favorite application, as a covert dinner-making weapon. (You read that correctly!)

Here’s the deal:

I keep the five I Spy jars on a shelf in our living room that the kids can’t reach. Because the jars aren’t easily available

The youngsters want them all the time! When I start putting dinner together about 4:00pm

Kids get a snack and all five I Spy jars emerge on the kitchen counter. It’s a party in the kitchen.

How did we wind up with 5 I Spy jars, you ask? The first two were generic I Spy jars with little items such as google eyes, colored buttons, and the word “M.”

Because I have two children, I had to make two. But Maxwell was having so much fun discovering the letters that I decided to make a third I Spy jar just for the alphabet.

I took a Ball® Sharing Jar and filled it with all 26 letters of the alphabet

Did you know that for every package of Sharing Jars purchased, Newell Brands will provide four meals to Feeding America?

The fourth I Spy jar was created because Ball® Mini Jars were ideal for a “Maxwell” name I Spy jar.

Not to add that he has just been obsessed with spelling his name. After more consideration

Maxwell actually prefers numbers to letters, so I had to construct him a number I-Spy jar as well.

I SPY JARS MUST BE MADE IN THE FOLLOWING MANNER:

  • Miniature trinkets
  • Numbers and letters
  • Rice
  • Acrylic paint in a variety of colors
  • Card indexes
  • Scissors
  • Paintbrushes
  • Sprinkles

STEP 2: ADD THE RICE

  • It’s time to assemble the I Spy jars! 
  • Didn’t even use a funnel because the jar rims are nice and broad. 
  • I poured the rice into the jar directly from the bag. 
  • Filled the generic I Spy jars about a third of the way with rice, then added a few trinkets, sprinkles, and more rice.

STEP 3: INSTALL TRINKETS

Kept piling rice, trinkets, and sprinkles until there was approximately an inch of room at the top of the jar.

The one inch of space at the top of the jar is crucial! 카지노사이트

This lets the rice and trinkets to travel about, allowing you to “spy” on everything.

  • I SPY JAR TRINKET IDEAS
  • Miniature plastic animals
  • Buttons
  • shattered jewelry
  • Letters from Scrabble
  • Puzzle components are missing
  • A coloring pencil

Stickers/ If you have two of the same sticker, glue them together to produce a double-sided sticker.

  • Pom poms in various colors
  • Google’s vision
  • Paperclips
  • Candles for a birthday
  • strands of colourful yarn

Take a look in that junk drawer!

I used these card stock number and letter stickers I had on hand for the non-generic I Spy jars.

Adhered the stickers to one another so that the letter would be double-sided.

I would have ordered something similar to these on Amazon if I hadn’t had these on hand.

STEP 4: CREATE LID LABELS

After filling the jars with rice and snacks, write a note of what’s inside with an index card. Trace a circle with the flat metal lid facing down on an index.

The circle should then be cut out with scissors. Use this circle to write what’s inside each jar!

As you can see below, I accomplished just that for three of my five jars! I got fancy with the letter jar and painted multiple colored index card circles.

For the tiny “Maxwell” jar, I had Max color the lid and stamped “Maxwell” on top. There is no wrong way to accomplish this part! 카지노 블로그
