Are your little ones wanting to practice writing? Try this fun way to write using some easy things you probably already have in your home!
All you need is:
- fine grain salt
- food coloring
- ziploc bag
And then for writing, you can use:
- low tray or baking sheet
- stick/back of pencil
- optional – tracing letter flashcards (Scroll down to download a free sample!)
Simply pour some salt into a bag, add a few drops of food coloring and then mix it up! Once it is all mixed, pour out onto a low tray and that’s it!
Have fun drawing letters or shapes and then use a brush to smooth out the salt so that you can write again.
You can also stamp shapes using cutters or just enjoy in some sensory fun with scoops and bowls.
Pair it with our tracing letter flashcards for extra learning fun!
