I receive an E-mail newsletter from, Play-Activities.com where I saw this idea. I thought it would be neat to try so I’m posting it.
Frozen Water Shapes
Materials:
Various size balloons
Food coloring
Eye droppers
Large container for water play
Preparation:
1. Select different shaped balloons
2. Fill with water
3. Put in freezer for a few days
4. After they are frozen solid- cut away the balloon, leaving the shape.
Ideas:
Put the ice shapes into the large container. ( baby bath, paddling pool or water table)
Allow them to drop the food colouring onto the ice and watch the colors change.
Good For:
Hand - Eye Coordination
Experimentation
Creativity
You could also do this with different shaped ice cube trays.
Congratulations! You are the winner of the Kids World Exploration Lesson Plan CD. You will be getting an e-mail shortly.
