July 17, 2014 by Shellie Wilson

DIY-Fenfetti-Candle

If you are looking for a fun and unique candle to make for a birthday or celebration, then this funfetti candle is just the thing. With its cute and quirky appearance, this candle is sure to add a touch of fun to any occasion. Plus, you can customize the scent to match your favorite dessert or party theme.

The best part is that making this candle is surprisingly easy. You will need just a few basic supplies, including a melt and pour soap base, candle dye, fragrance oil, and sprinkles. You can find all of these items at a craft store or online.

To get started, simply melt the soap base in a double boiler or microwave. Once it is fully melted, add your candle dye and fragrance oil. The amount you use will depend on the size of your candle, so be sure to follow the instructions carefully. You can choose any color and scent that you like, but a sweet scent like vanilla, strawberry, or chocolate would be perfect for this funfetti candle.

Next, pour the melted soap into a candle mold. You can use any mold that you like, but a simple votive or jar will work best for this project. Before the soap sets, add a handful of sprinkles to the top. You can use any type of sprinkles that you like, but colorful jimmies or confetti would be ideal for this candle.

Allow the candle to cool and harden completely before removing it from the mold. Once it is fully set, you can decorate the outside of the candle with additional sprinkles, stickers, or other fun embellishments. The possibilities are endless, so feel free to get creative!

Making a funfetti candle is a great way to add some fun and whimsy to your candle collection. It is easy to make and can be customized to suit any occasion or theme. Whether you are looking for a fun birthday gift or a festive decoration for your next party, this candle is sure to delight. So, gather your supplies and get ready to create a fun and colorful candle that everyone will love.

Summer Math Games for Kids

I know the last thing most kids want to do during the summer is anything that feels like school, but the truth is doing little things to reinforce the learning they did the previous year will make the next year easier for them. 

Also true: you can make this learning fun by turning it into game time. 

These printable math puzzles from Living Life and Learning are great to use in the car when you’re on a road trip, or just any time you need a little activity to pass the time. They involve adding numbers up to 10 and include cute summer-themed graphics as well as the numbers. 

Help the bee get back to the hive with math in these math maze puzzles from Artsy Fartsy Mama. There are versions for addition, subtraction, multiplication and division for kids of different levels to enjoy.

Of course math games are even more fun if you take them outside. Hopscotch is a classic outdoor game that can be easily made about math. Just one idea is this skip counting hopscotch idea from Math Geek Mama. Have the kids fill in the numbers and them count them off as they jump.  She also has a fun jumping math maze that looks like a lot of fun. 

Look We’re Learning has some more fun ideas for math games you can play outside including a beanbag toss, counting treasure hunt and sidewalk chalk math. 

Some days it’s too hot to go outside so you might need some indoor math games to play. Math Geek Mama also has a great collection of Lego math games and activities for kids of all ages. Primary Playground has games you can play with Uno cards to learn about numbers, sort colors and more. 

Older kids will enjoy the math games using dominoes from Upper Elementary Snapshots. 

Take your math learning on the go with these math themed cootie catchers from 123 Homeschool 4 Me. There are lots of options here including ones just with numbers, with math problems or that ask you to double numbers. Inside numbers are presented as hash marks, fingers or dots to add an extra layer of fun.
