Caleb likes to crafts...I think that is an established fact. Fortunately for me, he often comes up with his own craft ideas. He even follows my example and dumpster dives in the recycling bin when he wants inspiration. Today he came looking for me with an empty pickle jar in hand. He wanted to color sand and layer it in the jar, and Natalie was asleep, so I said yes. Here was our result:
After we got to green, I personally didn't want to color sand anymore! So I suggested we cram the empty space full of some recycled stuffing I had been saving for crafts. That way the rainbow could have a cloud. The kids were delighted and I think it looks pretty nice too.
Marianne would love this one... she rearranges everything into rainbows. How do you color the sand? Just stir food coloring into it?
ReplyDeleteThis is funny because Caleb is into rainbows too. He gets a little annoyed when people have the colors in the wrong order! And yes, just food coloring and sand. (We did it outside.)
