    Do check the catch is ok on these, I picked one up yesterday as they look quite cute but when I opened it the metal fastening came apart so put it back. may have just been unlucky but open & close it a few times before you put them in your shopping basket.
    Booo!!!

    You could fill them with flavoured sugar, vanilla, lavender etc. Great for baking sprinkled over cakes, biscuits etc.

    depending on the age of the kids could you get a small heart punch & make lots of hearts out of paper to fill the jar & put a label on saying something like a jar of love. I know very cheesy.


    or get the kids to make slips of paper with tasks / favours like I will do the washing up after sunday lunch, I will up the bins out etc, so mum came pull jobs out of the jar a random, I know kids often have jobs to earn pocket money but I sure you could come up with suggestions know your group better
