Kool-aid ice bowling

We love to play with ice and so we made Kool-Aid ice balls. Fun for summer play and a great way to stay cool.

All you need is balloons, kool-aid packets, water and a freezer. Then can use pins or plastic cups for the bowling pins. What we used was plastic pins from our Little Tikes bowling set.

Hours of fun and if you place paper down to make an alley then you can have some cool painting as well.




This activity is great for fine motor skills, eye hand coordination and fun way to get moving. Below are a couple other fun games we have done be sure to check them out.

Bubble goop letter learning

Goop and bubbles are fun to play with so we mixed them together to make a fun sensory letter learning.

I took our letter ice trays and made colored ice with them and then added it to our play. You can also use the dollar letter magnets that are plastic they work great as well.

Simple, fun and learning at the same time.

You can buy the ice trays here. Letter Ice Trays There is a lot you can do with these trays from sensory play to bath play.




 Cate made alphabet soup


Making the ARRR sound for the letter "R"

As Cate would pick out the letters we would say the sound along with the letter.

She loved it.

Below are some other fun sensory ways we worked on letters in the past.
