Glitter Globes Craft

Materials you will need:
Empty watertight glass jar
Plastic figurine - tall ones look best
Cooled boiled water
Glycerine
Glitter
Super glue

How to make Glitter Globes Craft:

1. Glue a plastic figurine (or anything waterproof) onto a jam jar lid using super glue. Make sure an adult does the super gluing step.
2. Add about a teaspoon of glitter in the jar.
3. Add 2 teaspoons of glycerine to a cup of cooled boiled water. The glycerine thickens the water and makes the glitter float slowly.
4. Add the glycerine and water mix to the jar, filling it up to the top. Screw the lid with the figurine onto the jar.
5. Shake and enjoy watching your snowstorm glitter globe. We tried a very small jar and a larger one. The tall jar worked much better as the glitter took much longer to float down after shaking.
