Craft
syringe painting
You'll need:
thinned out paint
syringe (without needle)
paper
Go outside for this activity, it's kind of messy. Suck up the paint in the syringe and squirt it onto the paper. You can either hang up the paper or lay it on the ground. We did it on the ground and some paint splattered on Shelby's shoes, but it's washable so I wasn't worried. My little girl loved doing this. She kept jumping up and down saying how cool it was. We'll have to do this again.
Sensory Bin

water
