Spotlight on: Beeswax Candles

Our beeswax candle kit finally came, so we took advantage of Grandma visiting to make the candles. This is such a fun and easy activity for kids! Kits are available at the toy websites I have listed in my sidebar.

You take squares of beeswax, lay the wicking on one end, and the roll until you have a candle.


Then, with mini cookie cutters, you cut Christmas shapes out of the wax scraps and press them into the side of your candle.


That's all there is to it!

Those look really fun. I love the Christmas starts too. It makes me look forward to doing more things like that in the future with A.
