I just started doing them with my daughter. We need more fun inside things to do this winter. I did a bithday bin (her birthday is on Sunday) for my daughter and a construction bin for my son. I used almost all re-use or recycled materials. <br />http://sustainable-family.blogspot.com/2010/12/sensory-bins-recycled-kids-activity.htmlSustainableMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05193397596448367154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4681682116832899311.post-80795132622560804612010-12-06T14:18:22.796-04:002010-12-06T14:18:22.796-04:00Hi!

I have a couple of questions about your sensory tub for this month. First, how did you go about coloring the rice with the food coloring? Second, do you explain what everything is to your little guy or just let him figure it out on his own? For example, do you explain to him that the wooden disk represent tree trunks or just let him play without any explanation. Thanks for posting all of your wonderful ideas!The Woodall familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08527776599671819948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4681682116832899311.post-8101490108055827542010-12-06T10:34:49.930-04:002010-12-06T10:34:49.930-04:00Hi Mari-Ann!

I linked to you in my post for today:<br />http://sunriselearninglab.blogspot.com/2010/12/on-our-shelves-december-activities.html<br />You are my inspiration for making our sensory table, which I showed in one of the photos. The boys are enjoying this work, although they are hoping this cold snap wraps up here in Florida, as it makes for a cold time to be playing out on our lanai.<br /> We have yet to make playdough, but plan to try your recipe this month. Little Bro loves playing with playdough and will just love making a playdough Christmas tree. <br />Well, have a happy week. <br />Colleen :)The Sunshine Crewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18192803776942631973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4681682116832899311.post-79091908416814294582010-12-04T21:42:03.695-04:002010-12-04T21:42:03.695-04:00what a super, creative, & wonderful idea about...what a super, creative, & wonderful idea about making the dough into a decorasted christmas tree!!!. I made one of Naters Playdohs this month Grinch green (she loves the grinch). Hope you don't mind, but i'm going to have Naters do this with some small scrapbooking embellishments that i have! I make her playdoh and sensory tubs up a month early and then put them away until the first of the month. I'm always excited to give her the new ones! Love your ideas!!!!
