Messy Summer Fun Week 2... 2012

It's the return of Messy Summer Fun!!! .... I run a 5 week program during the summer which includes fine motor, gross motor and lots of sensory activities... all of which are MESSY!!! This year I have 23 kids ranging from 9 months to 7 years.... here's what we did this week:

We had an ocean life sensory bin.... with water...
 blue stones from the dollar store... a couple of ice cube trays...
 some fish and dolphins.... some containers....and a sponge for diversity...
Our messy craft this week was ice cube painting- I mixed a little bit of water with some washable paint and froze it in an Hawaiin ice cube tray. This is always a big hit.... and so messy....
 The little ones...showing their messy hands...
 After the paint ice cube melted... the paint remains...
I made ice sculptures with numbers frozen inside..in layers.... 
the kids tried to see who could get to the numbers first....
 Melting the ice sculptures....
 Our relay race this week included hippity hops, water balloons, and the sprinkler...
 The kids had to transfer the water balloons from one bucket through the sprinkler to the other....some made it...and some just threw them... either way... good times...
 Sprinkler....
 For this week's snack we had home made snowcones...
