Squishy Bag | Pin of the Week

Squishy Bag | Pin of the Week
March 5, 2013

Our pin of the week is a “Squishy Bag” from the bloggers at Play At Home Mom LLC. Children can practice pre-writing skills, letters, numbers, shapes, etc. In addition, it offers a great therapeutic/calming effect and can be used simply as a sensory activity.

We especially like this idea because it is so easy to make! This “Squishy Bag” was made from gallon size Ziploc bag, glitter, food coloring, and dollar store hair gel! All you have to do is mix the ingredients, seal shut, and tape on a white piece of paper.

Make sure you check out our Pinterest page to see more ideas like this, fun activities for kids, tips for parents, healthy recipes, and more.
