I bought a 50 lb. bag of rice the other day and poured about 1/3 of it into the sensory tub today when some of the cousins were over. Daphne, who is still 1, Naomi (3), Sophia (5), and Gabe (8) played in the rice for hours! It made a huge mess and there is rice all over the house but who cares! I put some scoops, shovels, measuring cups and a couple sand toys into the tub and they stayed very busy. I plan to dye some of the rice for future projects but for now this plain rice is loads of fun. It will probably stay in the tub for at least a few days. I still have to find a bag big enough to store it in when I take it out!
