Plastic Hanging Jar - Pack of 10

The Creatistics Plastic Hanging Jar is a fun and versatile resource designed to spark creativity in the classroom. Each jar is clear with a silver screw cap base, allowing children to easily fill it with their chosen materials such as figurines, paper shred, glitter, and other embellishments. These jars are ideal for creating personalised seasonal decorations like Easter ornaments, Mother's Day keepsakes, terrariums, Christmas tree baubles, or even miniature lanterns. The smooth plastic surface of the jar is perfect for decorating with markers, stickers or paint, and the jar can also hold a battery-operated tealight to transform it into a charming lantern. Each jar includes a silver hanging string for easy display. These hanging jars not only support artistic expression but are also a great tactile and fine motor activity, promoting engagement and hands-on learning in a fun and meaningful way.
