Sprinkle and Wipe

I saw this super great activity here on Chasing Cheerios. So simple but M* was enthralled.
Materials:
Salt Shaker
Sponge
Baking Pan
Fill the salt shaker with water then let your kiddo sprinkle it into the pan then show them how to suck it up with the sponge. Repeat...repeat...repeat...and again.

Bubble Bath-Outside the Tub

Remember the good old days of bubble bath beards and hair-dos? I sure do. Unfortunately now days (or maybe I just didn't get the news until now days) putting your kid in a bubble bath is like bathing them in poison, I haven't decided which is more frowned upon. Anyway, I can't shake the feeling that M* is missing out on one of the finer things in life, so instead of bringing her to the bubble bath we will bring the bubble bath to her!

Materials:
Dish Bin, Bowl, or Bucket
Bubble Bath or Dish Soap
Toys
Towels

Fill dish bin full of bubbles and water. Plop in toys, preferably toys your child doesn't see in the bath everyday, get some that float and some that sink. It was like a treasure hunt trying to find the things at the bottom. Alert:Drowning hazard. Don't leave your toddler alone with this.

Water Games

(Possible) Materials:
Dish bin
Colander
Cups of all colors and sizes (I think half a stack of nesting cups would be perfect)
Spoons
Towels!!!

Gather materials. Fill dish bin with about 2 inches of warm water. Have at it! Don't leave your little one alone with this as it poses a drowning hazard. Have towels on hand to wipe up spilled water. Obviously everything in the vicinity is going to get soaked so don't put your child in the outfit she is wearing to Aunt Mod's 93rd birthday party that night.
Please try to ignore my mangy dog poking his head in the picture.
