I Spy Jars

🔍 I Spy Jars 🔍

We had fun making these together! Materials and links 👇🏻. First, find or purchase the objects you want to hide. Line them up on a piece of paper and take a picture. I don’t have a color print cartridge so I uploaded the photo to Walgreens and chose an 8×10 size and was able to pick up within 10 minutes! (Note: don’t put the objects too close to the side of the paper as it could get cut off on the enlarged photo.) Place objects in jar and fill with colored riceabout 2/3 of the way.

💡 Retail Me Not app usually has a photo coupon code for Walgreens for 40-50% off. 
💡 Purchasing smaller sized objects will make it more challenging for older children. 
💡 These are great for car trips or to bring to a restaurant or doctor office- anyplace where kids need to “wait”. Also great if you need to make a quick phone call and still keep your little one occupied! 🤪
