Funfetti Mason Jar Candles

by

If you’re looking for a fun and unique way to celebrate a special occasion, such as a birthday or anniversary, why not try making funfetti candles? These candles are not only easy and affordable to make, but they also add a touch of whimsy to any event. All you need is some funfetti cake mix, a mason jar, and a few other simple supplies to get started.

The funfetti candle tutorial is a great option for those who are new to candle making or those who are looking for a fun project to do with kids. You can easily customize the candles with different scents and colors to fit the occasion, and they make great gifts for family and friends.

The process of making funfetti candles involves melting candle wax, adding fragrance and color, and then pouring the mixture into a mason jar that has been decorated with funfetti cake mix. Once the candles have cooled and solidified, you can light them up and enjoy the sweet, vanilla scent and colorful sprinkles that will be released as the candle burns.

These candles are not only visually appealing but also offer a warm and cozy ambiance to any space. They can be used as a centerpiece for a special occasion, as a decorative item in a bedroom or living room, or simply as a way to add a sweet aroma to any room in your home.

Shark Week Learning for Kids

Shark Week generally happens in July, but any time is a good time to learn more about sharks. 

First, start with some fun whale facts like these from Kids Craft Room. Here I learned about the dwarf lantern shark, which is the smallest shark and only grows to about 6-8 inches (about 15-20 cm) long. It also emits light. How cool is that?

Natural Beach Living has some great printable shark information guides, where kids can learn about different kinds of sharks, match the facts to the pictures, or print out doubles and do a shark memory game. 

Living Life an Learning has some great shark activity pages including the parts of a shark, types of sharks, a crossword puzzle and more. Also check out their parts of a shark and word scramble download, and a life cycle worksheet.

Learn about how sharks float with this great activity from JDaniel4’s Mom. 

Need more facts about sharks? This fact pact from The WOLFe PACK on Teacher Pay Teachers includes fact sheets, a printable flip book, informational text, vocabulary, comprehension questions and more. 

Living Montessori Now has a great collection of shark themed activities with a Montessori inspired twist. You’ll find a shark roll and cover, shark phonics and lots more shark activities Deb has collected from all over the Internet. 

Remember the “Sharknado” movie? A Few Shortcuts turned the combination of sharks and tornadoes into a fun science activity. You’ll need a bottle connector for this project but otherwise should have everything you need on hand. Use their template to make your sharks out of aluminum foil. So fun!

You can also do some shark themed coloring with these coloring pages from Encouraging Moms at Home. Or make a cool 3D shark with this template from korkotak. And there are tons of different shark crafts collected in this post from Kids Activities Blog.
