This water noodle activity from My Little Gems is awesome! Grab a few of the water noodles that are hopefully on sale right now and make them into a large lacing activity by cutting the noodles into pieces.
I have had this activity on my "to do" list all summer and still haven't made them, but I wanted to share this idea with you before the noodles disappear from the stores!
This activity is great for fine motor skill development and can also be used to sort by color, work with patterning, or write letters on the pieces and make words!
Amazing activity! I'll be looking for these at CVS next week!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun idea! I have seen them used for stamping too. I think I will look for them at the dollar store later today. :)
ReplyDeleteHi- what cute photos in this post- ha ha-
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you like the lacing w/ water noodles! It is a really fun one :)
Love your mini water transfer and water I spy. THanks for always sharing so many great ideas- I may have to use some in preschool this year ;) oxoxo
This is exactly what I need for Ash! I've looked into those string and bead sets, but I was always worried she'd put them in her mouth and choke on them. Now I'm worried that her sister would put them in her mouth. This is a great alternative. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteWe're working on beginning reading skills, so writing letters on the pieces is a great idea to make putting words together a fun activity!
ReplyDeleteThis is fantastic! My little one is having a little trouble with lacing beads, so this is a perfect starter activity for her! Thanks so much for sharing!
ReplyDeleteLove this! I'm getting ready to head out now for some shopping, and I'll be keeping a look out for some noodles!!
ReplyDeleteOoh! I am on my way to the Dollar Tree to get some noodles! Thanks for the great idea. I absolutely LOVE your blog.
