It was a little messy, but was completely worth the joy that it gave T. She felt proud of her final product and even tasted it.
A few days later, I saw a post that used flour in their sensory box. (I look at so many blogs, it's hard to remember where I saw this idea from.) So, I turned T's rice box into a flour box.
T was captivated!
She asked for a mixing spoon. Silly mom forgot it.
Feeling...
Scooping...
Sifting...

great idea for a sensory box! My daughter will play with a pile of flour on the kitchen counter for an hour. She takes a cup to the bathroom to get water to mix with it.
ReplyDeleteI love how you took something she was interested in and built on it :) I don't know what it is with flour but our kids at preschool love it too. Recently I popped flour in shakers out on the playdough table with a bunch of old playdough and they had a ball mixing it all up together.
ReplyDeleteI think that I will let her mix some water in with the flour after a few more times of playing with it dry. I also like the flour shaker idea. Might try that one in the box as well or with some old playdough. Thanks for the great ideas ladies!
ReplyDeleteOooo flour! Henry loves it too! He loved cleaning it up with the vacuum the most - ha ha!
