Description

Create a stunning glow-in-the-dark fireworks display in a jar that ignites creativity and adds a magical touch to any space.


Ingredients

  • Clear glass or plastic jar with lid
  • Warm water
  • Vegetable oil
  • Food coloring (optional, for extra color)
  • Glow-in-the-dark paint (washable, non-toxic recommended)
  • Fork or toothpick
  • Small bowl
  • Optional: blacklight for extra glow effect

Instructions

  1. Fill your jar about ¾ full with warm water. The warmth helps the paint drops spread like fireworks.
  2. In a small bowl, mix the glow-in-the-dark paint with a little vegetable oil to create a smoother consistency.
  3. Using a fork or toothpick, drop small amounts of the paint mixture into the warm water.
  4. If desired, add drops of food coloring for additional color effects.
  5. Allow the mixture to settle and watch the fireworks effect as the paint spreads and glows.
  6. For an enhanced glow, place the jar under a blacklight for a few moments before displaying.

Notes

  • Ensure to use only washable, non-toxic paint for safety.
  • Experiment with different colors and amounts of paint for varied effects.
  • This project is best for older children with supervision.
