Do you want to make your very own snow globe? It’s easy and fun! Follow these simple steps, and you’ll have a magical snow globe in no time.
First, find a glass jar or container that has a lid. This will be the base of your snow globe. Make sure the lid fits tightly so no water can escape.
Pick a small object or figurine that you want to put inside your snow globe. It could be a tiny toy or a cute decoration. Just make sure it’s waterproof so it won’t get damaged by the water. Attach it securely to the inside of the lid using glue.
Fill the jar with distilled water, but leave a little space at the top. Add a few drops of glycerin to the water. This helps the glitter fall slowly, like snow. Then, sprinkle in some glitter to make it sparkle!
Carefully put the lid on the jar and seal it with adhesive to make sure it doesn’t leak. Let it dry completely before turning it over.
Now you have your very own homemade snow globe! Shake it gently and watch the glitter swirl around like snow. Isn’t it magical?
Making a snow globe is a great way to learn about how liquids and solids interact. You can also explore how different amounts of glycerin affect the speed of the falling glitter. Have fun experimenting and creating!
Experiment with Glycerin: Try making another snow globe, but this time, use different amounts of glycerin in each one. Observe how the glitter falls in each snow globe. Does more glycerin make the glitter fall faster or slower? Discuss with your friends or family why you think this happens.
Create a Story: Imagine the little figurine inside your snow globe comes to life. Write a short story about its adventures in the magical snow globe world. Share your story with your classmates or family and see what adventures they imagine for their figurines!
Observe and Draw: Take your snow globe outside and observe how the sunlight makes the glitter sparkle. Draw a picture of your snow globe in the sunlight. Notice how the light changes the colors and patterns of the glitter. What do you see?
