What's in the Tub Tuesday?

Week 2 of our sticky wall and I added feathers to the tub.

The girls are becoming quite familiar with tub and are always eager to explore.

How do these things move if I pick them up and drop them.

That is Cs favourite thing to do with every tub.

They do eventually get around to sticking them to the wall.

Sometimes putting them and sometimes peeling them off.

That is one reason a sticky wall is great as it is always changing.

The girls started to explore the feathers a little closer.

Discovering how they feel.

That they tickle when rubbed on their nose or face.

They discovered that a feather is very light and they may not feel it on their head.

 To finish our feather play off for the day we sang Two Little Dickie Birds.

What could we add to the sticky wall next week?

Any ideas?

What's in the Tub Tuesday?

To the sticky paper on the wall I placed the sensory tub in front of it and put small pieces of colour tissue paper in it.

They took the pieces of tissue paper and stuck it on the sticky wall.

They also discovered that the tissue makes a beautiful waterfall to the floor.

Another discovery was that the tissue easily stuck to the bottom of their feet when they walked on it.

That turned into part of the fun.  

Peeling it off the feet and sticking it to the wall.

All 3 of them enjoyed this idea of things sticking to the wall.

 I noticed that the table was getting in their way so I removed it and placed the tub on the floor.

Oh their curiosity!

They needed to check out the tub.

And soon started dumping it.

Their next step was to grab the paper and put it back in the tub just so they could dump it again.

The sticky wall will stay for a few weeks.

Next week I will add something new.

Visit again to see what it is.

What's in the Tub Tuesday?

Plastic eggs.

Some match but most don't.

They are eggs that I have accumulated over the years.

The large plastic spoons we used before.

 Introducing Jelly Bean Stew song to the twins and reinforcing it for the Older one.

Love these big egg cartons. 

I thought we would use them for walking on but they worked great to practice transferring skills.

 She walks so much more confidently in just one month than the last time we used the spoons.

I added baskets for them to fill and carry.

What's in the Tub Tuesday?

Blue sand, wooden monkeys and spoons.

Oh how lovely the sand feels.

The twins are learning to feed themselves with spoons so I thought this would be a good opportunity to practice.

I didn't think they would try to feed each other.

Lots of practice pinching the sand, lift it and put it in her cup.
