Craft of the Day: Rain Maker

What you will need:
soda bottle with cap
              or
clean baking powder can
              or
anything that is a small container that can be opened and closed (that you can decorate)
dried beans or rice about 1/2 cup full
glue and/or tape
crayons, markers and/or paint

Some items that you can add onto your container (Choice is yours):
Aluminum foil
Ribbons
Yarn
Stickers
tissue paper
Streamers

What to do

1. Take your container and fill it with the dried beans or rice then close the container nice and tight.
2. You may add tape to seal the container more so that the rice or beans don't come out of the container.
3. Now have fun and decorate your containers.
4. Let them dry if you used glue or paint.
5. Once your rain maker is dry, then you can go around shaking your rain makers...

A fun thing you can do with your rain makers is get dressed up and have a little pow wow in your living room with the kids or you can do this outside as well.
