DIY - sensory pasta box

we missed avery's playgroup today.

so to keep her occupied, i made a sensory pasta box.

i used her toy box, colored pasta in assorted shapes, plastic containers & a big spoon.

i just had to get a close up photo of the pasta.

it sure looks pretty!

 

she calls it "noonols". and yes, she did put it in her mouth once. [probably wondering why it's crunchy].

and the fun begins! scoop, scoop, scoop!

a couple of spills here & there. it's obvious that my girl doesn't really need much to be entertained. she was so engrossed & didn't even get distracted with the camera at all.

time to dump the "noonols" back in the box.

she enjoyed sliding everything in the cardboard tubes.

and after she's done, i saved all the pasta in airtight containers. [to play again, ofcourse].

thanks to the imagination tree blog for this fun idea.
