Kitah Bet Makes Snow(ish) Globes

In an excellent practice of fine motor skills and impulse control, Kitah Bet made a keepsake with various fun items of their choice, water and a baby food jar. Before beginning we spoke about how a snow globe works, that in order to see our things swirl around in the water we'd only need to use a small amount. Then we discussed the best way to carefully choose them - by using pinching fingers and taking a few at a time. 

We could choose from colorful beads, shiny sequins, ABC beads and different-colored sand.



We also used pinching fingers to sprinkle the sand into our jars.




When we had finished putting in all our fun things, we filled our jars with water and closed them up tight.
(Morah super glued them afterwards)
Now you can shake as you please and watch as the pieces inside dance and swirl. Enjoy!
