Glass Jars

We've been really missing our Unplugged Projects lately, so this week I wanted to make sure we did an activity incorporating the theme: glass.

We've acquired an impressive collection of glass jars over the past few months so I decided to take a few jars of varying sizes and show Little Bit how cool it is that they all make different sounds. I aligned them by tone from lowest to highest and tapped a few of the jars with the spoon to demonstrate. Then I handed the spoon over and let her go at it.

She tapped the sides and the rims for a few minutes,

then thought it would be more fun to make "chocolate milk" by stirring the spoon around in the jar.

Apparently the chocolate milk was very tasty.

So she poured some from jar to jar

and shared with her sister. She's usually very thoughtful like that. :)

Not quite what I had in mind, but I always enjoy watching her play pretend and I'm glad she was able to adapt my little project in a way that she could have fun with. To see more Unplugged Projects using this week's glass theme, visit Unplug Your Kids.
