He has a difficult time calming in stressful or anger producing situations and I often help him sort of "breathe" through it. Just wondered about giving him this tool for him to have in his room so he could begin doing it himself.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15639181835822394012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8013443217504323406.post-31108677139500313432011-08-05T20:07:27.329-04:002011-08-05T20:07:27.329-04:00Emily, I had the same issues the first time I made...Emily, I had the same issues the first time I made it, because I didn't add enough glycerin. I have read that if you use the heavier glitter, it settles faster, while the smaller glitter hangs longer. So, I would add more glycerin to the water. My friend Miri used glitter glue rather than loose glitter, which she said worked great. I like the loose glitter because we can name each pinch after a problem we are having. Because my kids are so young--four and one--one to three minutes is it for sitting still. I timed my mind jar at about two minutes. Hope that helps.still life angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15150141781089602529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8013443217504323406.post-54833164549689897482011-08-05T19:25:51.919-04:002011-08-05T19:25:51.919-04:00My glitter settles within about 20 secs at the mos...My glitter settles within about 20 secs at the most and it is little glitter....Any suggestions?
