Do I just get them wet and they shrink? Are they okay to just spray with water on my lawn and not hurt the grass? In the sink? What is the correct way? Thanks!

If you just want to get rid of them, throw them in the trash like you would anything else.
If you are looking for different ways of getting rid of them:
You can dissolve them in water for fun, but they make a sticky, gooey mess. I have heard you can feed them to ducks and geese at the park (but don't throw the whole lot in at one time) but I've never tried. You might try leaving a few outside in your yard to see if birds and squirrels take them. Make sure they truly dissolve in water before you try this, though.

If you are sure that they are the corn starch variety, just wet them and they will go away without any danger to anything.
I would not flush them because if there were just a few that were the plastic type they would stuff things up.
Out on the lawn is fine or in the sink till they are all gone.

Biodegradable. Spread them out in your backyard.

Use them to send out Christmas gifts to all the poor people in the world.
