Bottle fun

Bottles are great toys for all ages whether it be for making rockets, sensory toys for babies, musical instruments or sand toy. Here are a couple of ideas 

1. Sensory sequin bottle 
2. Sensory floating items bottle (sequins, glitter and food colouring) 
3. Treasure bottle/ musical instruments (chocolate coin wrappers)
4. Coloured rice  

Most are quite self explanatory in terms of how to make them just by looking at them. The coloured rice one may need a little more explaining... 
-You mix food colouring, vinegar and dried rice in a sandwich bag and mix together.
-When thoroughly mixed place rice on a tray to dry. 
-When rice is dry and vinegar has evaporated off add to bottle

As you can see from the squashed rice bottle my daughter enjoys the noise of squashing the bottle.
