kids are making homemade snowglobes for Christmas presents.. advice?

Hello, I found a fun craft for the kids to do for Christmas and give as presents. I know that the globe should be filled with distilled water and glycerin, does anyone know how much liquid glycerin? Also The glitter is floating!? How do I make it sink?
On last question. We really want to put a picture of the kids inside the globe. How could this be done? I have access to a laminator but am skeptical that it will stay waterproofed? Any ideas? Thanks!

    I’m not sure about making the picture water proofed, however, your glitter may be floating because it is too fine. I know when we made ours, the heavier glitter worked perfectly, while the really pretty (also really fine) ones just floated around. They are still really pretty though!
