Homemade Snowglobes


My boys and I made these homemade snowglobes today. It was a super easy kids craft. We just used equal parts water and corn syrup and then added some glitter snow and beads. (The corn syrup helps the glitter and beads stay suspended in the water) We added the water, corn syrup, and glitter using funnels and then the boys dropped the beads in by hand. They had a great time making them and they think they are pretty cool. I have to admit I like them too. I would recommend that an adult apply super glue or caulking to the lids before screwing them back on, just to be sure they are securely attached. Lots of fun!
