A large jar filled with colorful treasures, large and small, can lead to many moments of kid-inspired happiness.
They will take the buttons out, one by one, and line them on the floor. They will sort them by color, by shape, by size, by feeling, or by season. They will pour them into a larger container, and for the perfect piece.
Give them glue, construction paper and a paint brush. And they they will make art.
And if you're lucky, they will come to you the next day and ask, "Mom, where is the jar of buttons?"
