To make this colorful Thanksgiving Sensory Bin I used this method to dye my rice (except I forgot to add the water - it still worked out just fine, it just took a bit longer to mix!) I also added a few teaspoons of cinnamon and other fall spices to each bag. It smells so good!
I filled a quart-sized bag with rice for each color. I used orange, yellow, orange mixed with yellow, and dark blue. I added some mini pumpkins, an ear of Indian corn, some feathers, and some mini pie tins. It looks so beautiful!
She has had fun scooping and pouring the rice. She likes it when I bury her hands or feet in the rice. It does make quite a mess, but we try to keep it contained to the tablecloth we use as a playmat. Then I can pour it back in!
