Water play

A favourite activity with the girls is Water play. Finally we got some dry days so after clearing the water tray of rain water we got out playing again.

We used food colouring to colour the water adding abit more interest and also added some glitter too.
Lots of pouring and splashing. I added different sized bottles and encourage lots of talk about quantities and capacities. Ie which size bottle will hold the most?
I also introduced a new item to the tray. A pipette. I picked theses up really cheaply from Ebay. A pack of 10 was only a few pounds.
This was great fun and is also very good for the pincher grip, which helps with pen control for writing.
