DD's school is having a carnival in September. I am in charge of a Sand Art booth. My plan is to have the little empty plastic bottles and either spoons with funnels or squirt bottles. Kids will fill up the bottles. This is a fundraiser. I am having a hard time with pricing because I can't figure out how much sand I'll need.
The bottles are 2 1/2 ounces. The sand ***es in 2lb bags. These are not the same kind of measurements, right? I am trying to avoid filling up the little bottle to find out how much sand it takes. I guess I could weigh the empty bottle, weigh the bottle filled, subtract out the weight of the bottle, divide......yuckkk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can anyone help me?
