My child loves sensory play and I love more ideas on this! We have tried water beads, that is his favourite after play dough. Will try your other ideas 🙂
Thank you!

I am always looking for more tactile activities. I really love the Jenga block idea. Thanks for sharing!

In reply to J. Ivy Boyter. I'm sure there *must* be a food-safe way to dye noodles for little kids...I just haven't researched it yet!

I want to do the rainbow noodles, but my son is still very much the kid who puts everything in his mouth. LOL Great suggestions!

I’ve never heard of water beads before! And I love the idea of painting jenga blocks!

In reply to Elizabeth Brico. Yay, I know how hard that is! I try to create activities that will last for a few years.

In reply to Vicki @ Babies to Bookworms. Vicki, I'm sure she'll love them when she's a bit older. Have you found a good food-grade way to dye noodles? I'm sure someone on the Internet has shared a good strategy. :)
