Giggle Jars
Use standard "wide mouth" baby food jars for best results. The juice jars just don't look quite right.
With the lid on the jar, glue two large or three small cotton balls to

the lid of the jar. Then run a bead of tacky glue around the edge of the lid. Next cover with a 4 to 6 inch square of some sort of pretty cloth.

Hold in place with a rubber band until glue is set - about 15 to 20 minutes (dry is better). Before the glue is set, kinda slide the cloth
around to "even out" the folds and pleats. Take lid off the jar and using scissors, trim the cloth flush with the bottom edge of the lid. Remove the rubber band and trim the edge of the lid with lace, or rick rack, or narrow ribbon, etc.
You should now have a jar with the lid looking kinda like an under-stuffed pin-cushion.
Print up the following sayings onto a sheet of card stock..or business card. . Punch a hole in one corner. Tie a short piece of ribbon to each
tag. Have the girls take the lid off a jar hold it close to her mouth and "giggle" into each jar. Then quickly replace the lid, pinching the tags ribbon in the jar.
Poem
You say this jar is empty,
Well take another look!
This jar is filled with giggles,
In every little nook.
I put them there for you to save,
For when your life seems low.
So open up when times are sad,
And let my giggles flow.
