This is a great sensory activity, and helps to teach children their colors!
Ingredients:
* Plain Jello or Knox Gelatin
* Ice cube tray
* Plastic Ziploc bags
* Heavy duty tape
* Food Coloring
Directions:
* Make the plain Jello and pour it into the ice cube trays
* Have your children use a eye dropper (important for fine motor) and drop a different color into each compartment
* Refrigerate the Jello
* Then in a Ziploc bag put one cube of each color into the bag.
* Tape the bag closed with packing tape, so it won't open on the child
* Let the child explore the bag while their mix all the colors together
* Make sure and talk with your children about the colors and how they are changing while they are exploring
Additional Information:
