Notes

To avoid spills, use a plastic container that has a tight-fitting lid.
Encourage children to shake the container with both hands to make it easier.
If they get tired of shaking, it's okay to take breaks and return to it later.
You can refrigerate the leftover butter as you would with store-bought butter.
