Make the only kind of snowman we have in Texas, a melted one! We'll make melted snowman calm down jars on Wednesday, December 10th at 4:15pm. Calm down jars, or sensory bottles, are clear, sealed containers filled with liquid and a variety of small objects like glitter, beads, or sequins. Children can shake, roll, turn, and observe the contents — offering a relaxing, focused activity that's as beautiful as it is beneficial. We can always use a little calm around this busy time of year!
