Instructions
Step 1: Find what you need
- Gather your supplies and materials.
Step 2: Clean the water bottle
- Wash an empty water bottle and remove the label.

- Pour baby oil into the bottle until it's mostly full.
- Add shamrock and leprechaun coin confetti into the bottle.
- Shake gold glitter into the bottle as well.
- Then add a couple drops of oil based food colouring. We used yellow here to represent gold, but you could use green as well.
Step 4: Top off the bottle and close
- Fill the bottle to the top with baby oil.
- Add the lid to the bottle and tighten well.
- Shake the bottle to mix the add-ins and the food colouring.
- Your St. Patrick's Day sensory bottle is complete! Move the bottle back and forth to see the glitter and confetti float around the bottle.Then have fun making more sensory bottles for St. Patrick's Day! Keep reading below for what we added to these other calm jars.
