Sensory activities and popsicles

 
 
Today during learning time, Baby C and I went outside for a little fun in the sun!!!
 
 
 
 We love doing sensory activities and today was so simple
 
 
What you will need
 
Soapy Water
Plastic Container (I used an old coffee can)
Whisk
 
 
 
I knew I wanted to do something water related since it was so hot so I added a few drops of dish soap to a container of water and we got to make bubbles! It was so adorable watching him eagerly whisk the water and seeing all of the bubbles form.
 
 
He loved to check the whisk and make sure it was still covered In bubbles
 
Then it was back to stirring!
 
 
 He shrieked, he smiled, he laughed!
 
 
He switched hands and tried to experiment using both
 
 
 
 
He also decided to try feeling the bubbles with his hands.
This was extra fun!!
 
He definitely enjoyed this activity and it didn't cost me anything since I already had everything for it!
 
 
Play time doesn't have to be expensive!
 
 
 
Afterwards, we put our new whisking skills to the test with HOMEMADE BLACKBERRY POPS!
 
 
We made our own concoction of soy milk, Greek yogurt, agave, vanilla and of course blackberries!! We LOVED how they turned out but you might want to tweak the recipe to your families taste
 
 
What you will need for THREE pops
 
1/2 cup greek yogurt
1/4 cup soy milk
 splash of agave
splash of vanilla
blackberries
 
 
 
Mix ingredients together in a medium sized bowl,
add to popsicle mold and freeze
 
Don't they look delicious?
 
He doesn't mind eating healthy popsicles!
 
 
 
He loved these and they were extra special because he got to mix them himself!
 
 
Who doesn't like cooling off with yummys!?!?
 
 
Happy baby!
 
 

 
Afterwards, he gave his daddy a high five for picking such a cool mommy!
