Multicolored Beeswax Candle Making Kit ($19.95)
After my little "we can only have fun if we listen" speech, I handed each girl a sheet of beeswax.
"This is going to turn into a candle?!?"
Linnea smelled hers....mmmmm....beeswax. There's just a touch of honey scent.
I showed them how to roll the wax. Our house is chilly, so we warmed the sheet with a hair dryer first.
Look how careful Arielle is.
Linnea is all done.
"Look, Mom!" She was so proud. This is a great project for preschoolers like Linnea who like quick results.
Arielle was still working.
A Toy Garden also sent Stockmar Wax Sheets ($31.95)
We used small cookie cutters to cut out leaves and other shapes.
We just wrapped them around the candles and pressed them on.
Beautiful!!!
The girls got lots of compliments on their hard work.
This is a great holiday craft. You could make it a family tradition. I think we will. The candle making kit is also available in Christmas or Hannukah colors (make your own Hannukah candles - cool!) and in natural beeswax.
And, check out A Toy Garden for stuffing stuffers and unique holiday decor. Arielle loves the child-sizes cardinal wreath ($14.95) that decorates her door.
Thank you, A Toy Garden! This was a super fun review. We'll definitely do this again.
