My mom shared with me this idea she found on Pinterest (Yes, she is now officially a Pinterest junkie!!) and I tried it out for myself. It's a time out bottle designed to help kids not only sit in time out effectively, but to calm down as well! Caleb can get kind of nasty when he is sent to time out (not my son!), which sometimes leads to bigger issues. This is one of those, "Can't hurt, might help!" ideas, so I figured why not??? The complete directions are found at the link above, but basically, I added a little clear Tacky Glue, about half a tube of glitter glue, some glitter, and some water. I didn't measure anything, but less is more. I added small amounts until the glitter fell to the bottom in about 5 minutes, using my microwave timer to test it out. The key is to use HOT water. I put it in the microwave for about 4 minutes to get it boiling. The heat helps to melt the Tacky Glue, or else it will clump. So make sure your wate...
Choosing joy and trusting God!
