Lanterns of Lore
Mom Amy of Mamascout shares this clever idea for making story lanterns with her littles — what a great project for unleashing your child's creativity!
Having found the project in Alphabet Glue (full deets in her post), Amy says that this was a great project for her 9- and 5-year-old kids and that these personalized jars would make great gifts, solstice jars, and more. To make your own bright lantern jars, have your child paint and write out a story on pieces of paper, then glue them onto the sides of the jar. Once the papers have dried, simply add a tealight candle to the jar and watch as your child's story comes to light before your eyes!
