Homemade Sugar Scrub

What You Need:

• 2 teaspoons fresh chopped rosemary
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• ½ cup brown sugar
• Lavender oil
• Lemon zest
• Honey
• Mixing bowl
• Spatula
• Small plastic container with lid
• Tissue paper
• Ribbon

What You Do:

1. Invite your child to gather the ingredients needed to create the calming foot scrub. She can put the ingredients on a work surface alongside a mixing bowl.
2. Now she can measure the ingredients and put them in the mixing bowl, noticing how each ingredient smells and feels. All these things mix together to create something really special!
3. While she’s stirring everything together, encourage your child to think of additional ingredients that might make her foot rub special for mom. She can sprinkle a couple of drops of lavender oil, zest a lemon, or squeeze a drizzle of honey into the mix!
4. Once the mixture's ready, she can put the foot scrub in a small lidded plastic container, wrap it nicely with a colorful sheet of tissue paper and secure it with a tied piece of ribbon. A gift any mom would love!
