Mosaics are great beginner projects!  This tutorial shows you how to make sparkly mica bits for the projects, but I've also done this with frit balls made from scrap.

The smaller project size means this won't take all day, and will require minimal supplies.  

This one is fun because kids can customize their bottle with their mom's favorite colors.  With a little bit of planning they could also bring a bottle from home.  

This is an easy beginner project so everyone can enjoy themselves and not stress about if things are 'perfect'. 

Also, functional!
