We have been doing lots of sensory play this winter.
Baby Rex LOVED LOVED LOVED his blue themed goop tub. Now that Rex is a bit older I am trying to link multiple learning experience together. Color themed sensory tubs are a great and easy way to accomplish this.

I painted the tub walls with washable Crayola paint while Rex was napping.
Added an assortment of blue toys and a double box batch of blue goop.

He was very enthralled by the goop raining down and through his fingers.
I made the goop a little thicker today than last time we played. This proved to be an excellent fine motor muscle work out. Z-Rex really had to dig his fingers in to pick up the goop or any toys.
Z-Rex couldn't get enough goop today. He played for over an hour!
Tips & Tricks:
- Goop is made by mixing cornstarch with water
- Add water slowly until desired consistency
- If goop dries out while playing, just add a bit more water
- I used too much food coloring today, Z slightly resembled Baby Smurf after playing. A long bubble bath afterwards took care of that.
