baby play: rings in water

July 25, 2013

Last week was very hot, and we had the sprinkler and baby pool out all day, every day, though, we really only ventured out in the mornings.  I wanted to have a few extra fun activities for John and May.  I gave May a bowl of water and added assorted rings to it, along with some ice cubes (which melted quickly!)  This was a fun and (very) easy sensory play for her in those mornings that she did not want to be splashed by her brother in his bigger (baby) pool.

This kept May occupied for a while.  She loved all the different rings and threw them out, then tried to drink the water.

I have seen this done with colored ice cubes before, which would be fun, but it was way to hot to try since the ice melted so so quickly!DSC07767 DSC07765
