- take a bucket of water and a paint brush and let your child "paint" the outside of your house
- drain the liquid from chickpeas, into a bowl (save the chickpeas for another use) and whisk very well until fluffy then let your child have at it, safe to eat and sensory friendly
- water bottles and pans are the best distraction for kids, they can use them as drums or just fine motor skill, putting the bottles in and out of the pans
- take a container of large dry noodles ( not cooked and large enough they cant easily be swallowed) and just give to your kids, this helps with exploration and fine motor skills ( you can also "hide" toys for them to discover)
- put on some music and see how high and how long your child can jump ( works best for siblings to see who can jump the highest :} )
