This one was a winner when I took it along to playgroup a few weeks ago. The children spent ages scooping it up in cups, pouring it, and of course dipping their hands in. It was so easy to make and such a fun way to let the children explore. If you wanted to take it a step further you could get your child to watch you make it and then talk to them about the changes that took place in the morning. All of a sudden a fun play activity becomes your very own science lesson!
