Set up some sensory play – RICE (you can use pasta, chickpeas or any other dried food in your cupboards)

The great thing is that you can keep it in a big tub and get it out a few different times. You can use it with little diggers or cars or even spoons and jugs, sometimes we use blocks and whatever else we have close by to make a construction scenario.

If you don’t want to make it coloured, plain rice is just as fun!

To make it

1 cup of white rice – or past or chickpeas

1 teaspoon vinegar

Food colouring

Put everything into a zip lock bag and close, mix until the rice is coated in colour and vinegar, put on a tray to dry.
