Rainbow Rice Sensory Play

Rainbow rice, how fun. I came across this idea on pinterest.com(my newest addiction) and decided to give it a try. 


The supplies:


Two bags of rice, i didn't have white rice so i used brown rice :]
Food coloring, liquid or gel works fine
Rubbing Alcohol 
Seven baggies


So i used about a cup and a half of rice per color and i did, RED, ORANGE, ,YELLOW, GREEN, BLUE, VIOLET but you can make more or less., i portioned out the rice into separate baggies and added about a table spoon and a half of rubbing alcohol and desired colors to the rice and sealed up the bag and shook until all the rice was saturated opened the baggies back up and let them dry. *Note, alot of food coloring may be needed for desired color. 


Lastly i spread out the rice in a large container and added some toys like a spoon with holes large enough for rice to fall through, stacking cups, ect. you could let your kiddo play with barbies in it, it doesn't matter, let those imaginations flow. :]
