Baby Oil and Food Coloring Sensory Bag

This was super easy to make and it smells so good.

What you will need.
Baby Oil
Food Coloring
Baggy \
Duct Tape

What to do
Put the Baby oil into the bag. Then put the food coloring in. Now get all the air out of the bag and then 
close it and duct tape the top. All done now the kids can play with it.
Be careful as it may leak and make sure they don't ingest it.

What it does 
So the baby oil will not mix with the food coloring so it's kind of like a lava lamp.

Diamond Dig Sensory Bin

Sorry everyone this post maybe a little short I had a pretty long day with a fussy 15month old who didn't want to be put down.
We did this a couple days ago and I just haven't felt like posting it.

This was a super easy and cheap last min bin I put together for the boys and they seemed to enjoy it.

What you will need.
coffee or brown sand or dirt.
Some for the kids to find. I used refreeze able diamond shaped ice cubes
Paint brushes

I just threw them in the coffee and hid them.

How to dye Easter eggs

Hey everyone not gonna lie I cheated and use a box egg dying kits. But I got it for free from CVS so it's okay.

This is the cheap brand PAAS

It came with the dye, stickers, and some other things we didn't use.

he's so ready to dye eggs for the first time 


Get a empty cut or bowl for each color.

Drop the color  into the cups . One per cu[

Then add the vinegar and water.

Mix it up.


He did a good job getting it into the cup.

Now just leave the egg in there till you get the color you want. The longer you leave it  the  brighter the color.

Take them out and  let them dry

Now some pics of our eggs.
























That's it we keep it pretty easy right now with the little ones. :)

Box Painting

We have a Al-Di's near us and that's where we get everything that we don't have coupons for. It's normally a       lot cheaper there. But we always forget to take our reusable bags with us so we seem to always come home with at least 1 box.. I saved this box for the boys to paint and then later on it can be used for different things. So far it has been a table for a restaurant and it's been a check out line for a grocery store. I can't wait to see what else the boys come up with.

I set  up the box with some paint , sponges and a paint brush.
Eli was just starting out.



The end.
i think I'll keep letting them do this.
