Mini Softies in a Jar

"I always love the look of cookies or dried fruits or sweets in a jar…there’s a whole shelf at the back of my kitchen with a colourful line of such jars…which made me think “Well, why not a jar of softies?”…of course, I knew all along that the softies might make a fuss…and that it might be a bit of a business getting them to play along. I think they enjoyed the game…even though they wouldn’t stay put for long…perhaps you’ll have better luck…"

As a former children's language therapist, I would,have loved to have these little critters in hand! These would lend themselves to helping children learn how to count and sort.... Big ones, small ones, green ones, etc. and to learn colors too! These would make fun little take away party favors too! Thanks for sharing a creative and practical learning tool that is fun for kids too!

Great idea for keeping the little ones amused while you are cooking or having guest over and looks great on the counter so they are a win win in that case. So super easy to make and no sewing machine needed. Nice tutorial too.

Mini softies are so much fun to make! And I love the name too haha. I also like the vibrant colors in these patterns - they do look cute all together in a jar!
