We made this for a craft at dd's bday party. But we just used plastic rectangular containers from Michael's and rice for the filler. We put in things like jingle bells, pom poms, googly eyes, little critters from a party store (frogs and such), mini erasers shaped like ladybugs, smile face confetti, ... if you go to a craft or party store and look around for a while things start jumping out at you as possibilities
