Bats and Stars Glowing Sensory Bottle

After all of the difficulties I had trying to create my Jack-O-Lantern Glow-in-the-Dark sensory bottle, it was great to have one that I knew would be quick and easy. Of my three glow-in-the-dark bottles, this one was by far the most straight forward and easiest to make.

The secret glowing ingredient in this bottle is glow-in-the-dark glitter! Glitter is one of the most common ingredients in sensory bottles, so everything came together pretty easily. I guess the hardest part was deciding what confetti shapes I wanted to put inside.

I bought a neat Halloween confetti pack from Amazon that had a bunch of different shapes to choose from. In the end, I decided on bats and stars, to make this look like a spooky night sky.

I originally made this with water and glue, but after a couple of days the glowing powder that is mixed in the glitter solidified in the bottom of the bottle, hard as a rock. Thankfully, it did not react the same way in a corn syrup and water solution.

The only other issue that I ran into was that the glitter got a bit clumpy. This was easily resolved with a small squirt of dish soap.

The Lord is your shade on your right hand.

The sun will not smite you by day,

Nor the moon by night.

The Lord will protect you from all evil;

He will keep your soul.”
