Mud sensory play

Materials:

• Bucket or sink

• Chocolate pudding

Children love this activity! They get to explore with their fingers and develop fine motor skills. Make up some pudding and toss in some gummy worms. I like to add in some coffee grinds to create a gritty texture.

Questions:

What does it feel like?

Where do worms live?
