Because my little C loves to play with water, as I know most toddlers her age do, the next couple of posts will hopefully give you some ideas for playing and learning with water in a more structured way. This first "tivity" is one of C's all time favorites! It's simple to put together, cheap (which you know I like), and a great way to get in some fine motor practice for those little fingers. All you need to set this up is a paint palette (I got one at Wal-Mart for 99 cents, I believe), a small bowl, a dropper (I use a large medicine dropper that you can find in the medicine aisle at just about any grocery or drug store), food coloring, and water.
C has to fill each hole of the paint palette with water using the dropper and then refill the bowl by transferring the water from each hole back into the bowl.
We have fun playing with many different colors and she is always very focused during this "tivity."
