Things youll need
This recipe will make enough for two colorful sensory bags!
STEPS
Mix flour, water and salt into a pot.
Heat on medium heat setting.
Mix for a few minutes until all of the mixture starts to thicken into a smooth paste.
But you’re free to use any colors you like!
Mix 10 -15 drops of food coloring into each bowl until youve reached the desired color.
Spoon the colors into the small baggies.
If using stickers, place them around the cardstock.
Cover the top side of your cardstock with packing tape.
This will help the colors move over the paper and not be absorbed into the paper.
Place the card stock into a corner of the large resealable bag.
Cut one corner of the small bags with each color.
Putting them in the little baggies helps keep the rest of the bigger bag clean.
Fold and tape the extra edges of the resealable bag to the back of the card stock.
Reinforce edges by sealing with packing tape.
Now you are ready to play!
Have your little one move the colors across the paper to cover the whole thing.
They will also love using their fingers to move the color mixture find the stickers hiding underneath.
What did you find?
Try using your finger to write a letter into the colors in the bag.
Or write a word or number.
Wed love to hear your ideas, too!
We hope you have lots of fun with these colors in a bag!
