Let's Play!
Put on a sweet music playlist and let your little one get to "work"! Our little play expert was very focused on her play! She swirled the water beads (which she insisted were blueberries, peas, and lemons) around in her candy "soup". Pouring and transferring are great fine motor skills for younger children, and the variety colors and textures of the materials keep older kids engaged in play. Endless possibilities for the imagination! Try switching out "ingredients" to find your favorites!
