Craft Club - Bugs

This week for Craft Club, we made bug jars. I found the idea from Oriental Trading Company and their bug jars here. But I thought, hey I can make those. So, I started to save and clean baby food jars and cut out stuff on my own and I think they turned out just as cute, (if not cuter :-) Mostly because of the glitter grass!

The kids loved going outside to find rolly-pollies to put in their jars. But the bad news is that I didn't put holes in the lids, so I feel bad for the bugs. Don't call me a "bug-killer", really I feel bad, but I couldn't very well, tell my kids they couldn't find bugs for their jars. And I couldn't easily make the holes. My kids carry their jars everywhere and are good to make sure they get air every few hours.

And then for snacks, we had Pudding Dirt (pudding, smashed oreos and a gummy worm). Another great craft day with the kids.
