Play Kitchen Spices - make your own


When N was a baby, I made sensory bottles for her. She has since grown out of them so I turned them into spices for the play kitchen (pictured above).

These have been a hit! In the bottles I used beads, pom poms, noodles, beans, and rice. I didn't write the names of spices on the bottles and I'm glad I didn't. It is fun to hear what B calls them as he adds them to his recipes.

**Make sure to glue the tops shut!

  1. Did you super glue the lids shut? I need to do the same thing for my son's kitchen.

  2. Thinking about my last post I realized how un-intelligent that question made me sound. Of COURSE you would super glue them shut so that your baby wouldn't choke on the small items inside. --Early in the morning and apparently my brain isn't working. Please forgive & don't judge me.

  11. What a great idea! My daughter loves to play with my spice jars anyway. Now, I'm really regretting tossing the empty cinnamon bottle this weekend. :)
