How to make a heart-filled sensory bottle
Filled with liquids, sparkling glitter, and even tiny items you can try to count, sensory bottles are a great way to relax and soothe yourself.
To make this one extra Valentine’s Day-themed, add red food coloring and heart confetti.
What you need:
- An empty bottle
- Water, corn syrup, and/or vegetable oil
- Glitter
- Confetti
- Food coloring
1. Fill about 1/3 of the bottle with corn syrup, and another 1/3 with vegetable oil. If you don’t have these exact items, experiment with other oils and amounts.
