Who this list is for
This supply list is for anyone organizing a sand art jar activity for ten guests, such as at a birthday party or craft station. It’s designed to keep the project tidy and make sure each participant has exactly what they need.
How to use this list
Set out supplies just before the activity begins. Give each guest a clear plastic jar, a funnel, two wooden craft sticks, a spoon, a sorting cup, and a name label. Use the permanent markers for labeling jars. Place sand in sorting cups for easy access. Lay out a disposable tablecloth to catch spills, and keep paper towels and a dustpan on hand.
Common mistakes
Don’t skip the labeling step—unlabeled jars get mixed up quickly. Avoid overfilling jars; leave room for corks or lids. Some hosts forget enough funnels or spoons, which slows the line. Skipping the tablecloth or running out of paper towels makes cleanup much harder. Don’t use glass jars with young children.
