Making Glow Jars With Glow Sticks

Last saturday my kids were so bored and needed some kind of fun activity to occupy them for a few hours.

Making glow jars with glow sticks.

You know the crunching sound you here when you snap a glow stick to make it glow. These fairy jars are so easy to make and they look so cool. What you are actually hearing is the glass breaking of the smaller vial inside the plastic tube. Then add the glitter and you are good to go.

All you need is a glow stick glitter and a mason jar and you can capture your own twinkling fairies in a jar. Give your highlighters a new purpose by extracting a shimmering liquid to make glow jars. The glow jars work using the liquid from the glow sticks. Flip it over and cut the other side.

The background is noisy and i tried to cut the parts out where they are screaming and playing with each other but you may want to put the volume dow. Create shapes inside your mason jar by purchasing removable stickers and placing them inside the jar before you pour the glow stick material inside. Soak the wick overnight in water this adds luminescence and color to the water. Take a scissors and cut the clear end of the glow stick off letting it drip into the jar.

A glow stick is made up of two chemicals. This is such a great glow stick idea and a super easy kids activity. Take a straw and put it over one end of the open glow stick and blow the rest of the liquid into the jar. To extract the liquid first crack the highlighter s plastic case and remove the colored wick.
