Ok so it looks like the marble is confusing people 😆 let me try and be a bit clearer- Drop a marble into a balloon. Tie a hair tie or a piece of string around the balloon at the top of the marble tightly to secure it in place. Turn the balloon inside out, this should mean the balloon covered marble is still inside the balloon. Blow up the balloon. The marble will be secured to the bottom of the balloon and will act as a weight, always keeping it upright. Who’s been following us long enough to remember when we used make one of these tutorial videos every week? Should we bring them back? | Tori Lynch

73K views · 11K reactions | This letter recognition activity is so fun and also works on fine motor skills! Here’s how: Take a big Ziploc clear bag. If you want to take the writing off the bag (optional), use rubbing alcohol to remove. Take a permanent marker and write circles with letters in them on top of the bag. Pour a little bit of clear hair gel (I don’t measure this but a few squirts) into the bag and a couple of tablespoons of water (I also don’t measure this). Take dry white beans (uncooked) and write the same letters on top of them with a permanent marker. I like to write the letters on both sides of the beans in case they flip over in the bag. Pour the beans into the bag and seal the bag up. Let your child move each bean into the correct circle with the corresponding letter.

Save this simple play idea with a friend and save to try! 🥳 #finemotoractivities #kidsactivities #christmascrafts #christmasactivities #sensoryactivities #preschoolactivities #toddleractivities | Jessie | Sensory Play•Autism Advocacy•Kids Activities

Sometimes, if I’m doing your spelling check, I’ll have a child write a word on every page just because it’s more friendly making a list. Sometimes we use these to practice word, families, and write a word on every page illustration. 🤖 Sometimes, of course we use them to write a story. Endless possibilities!
