Galaxy Space in a Jar
Report Copyright Infringement View in OSM UK
Description
Paint, glitter water and cotton wool added to a jar to make space effect
Link nicely with space badge
Resources
Small Jar e.g. jam jar
Water
paint 3 to 4 colours
Glitter for the stars (recommend sliver)
Cotton wool to be pulled apart to fill the jars (we needed 3 large packets of pleated wool for 18 beavers, the larger the jars the more wool needed, it takes more than you think)
Lolly stick to help push it all down
Instructions
fill the jar with 1/3 (or 1/4 if doing 4 colours).
Add a squirt of paint and sprinkle of glitter.
Mix
pull apart and push in cotton wool until water is absorbed.
Repeat for other colours until jar is full
Pink, Blue, Purple, yellow, are good space colours.
Be careful to only mix each layer separately
