Doing our caterpillar craft Annie Rose enjoyed using the pipette so much we carried on playing with it. It is great for fine motor skills.
But I had another idea too. We had been using water colours to paint earlier that day so I took a brush and used the paint to tint two tubs of water one yellow and one blue.
I put them on the table for Annie Rose with an empty tub in between.
She enjoyed transferring the blue water to the tub in the middle.
She tipped it back into the first tub, then transferred the yellow water to the tub in the middle.
She then decided to put both yellow and blue in.
It turned green and she noticed. “Look, green” she said.
(Although I am not convinced she knows her colours quite yet,
most things are green if you ask her!).
