several cotton balls and place then in separate plastic containers with tops.
Have children guess what they are.

Smelly Jars
Put holes in small jars. Fill the jars with cotton balls and smelly substances
(cinnamon, baby powder, garlic, vinegar, coffee, lemon, Kool-Aid, Hot cocoa,
etc). Let the children guess what the smells are. Additionally you can ask them
what the material is used for.
