Pasta Sensory Play
I have been eager to try out some
sensory activities on Dooey now that he has reached 8 months. As he is still
exploring everything with his mouth, some things are too dangerous for him
unless they are safe to eat. Unlike
Wugs, Dooey doesn’t seem put off by certain textures so I wondered how he would
respond to something like Tagiatelle or spaghetti. I had
some Tagliatelle in the cupboard that I had planned to use in meals, but it had
somehow got pushed to the back of the cupboard and as I hadn’t used it in the last six months, I suppose I'm unlikely to do so in the
next six months. Rather than see it go
to waste, I cooked it up and let it cool before letting the little one go wild.
He played happily in that bath for an hour and a half and (surprisingly), even
his elder brother joined in the fun.
What we used:
A baby bath (putting this in the
actual bath with both children would have also worked well)
Tagliatelle pasta (perhaps add a
little cooking oil to avoid clumping)
