    Fruit and Herbs Water Tub

    5 minutes preparation time and a real feast for the senses!

    Here's a simple activity my children love doing that keeps them engaged for ages. It's a simple and open-ended play that is suitable for children of all ages.


    This is one of the ideas from my Sensory Invitations to Playbook.


    I hope you enjoy this idea! It can be done outside too when the weather is perfect. 


    Love Anna x

    P.S: If you enjoyed this activity, you'll want to check out my playful parenting membership site - PlayLab. I'm hosting a free 3 part video workshop that will teach you simple ideas to take screen time to playtime. Keep your eyes peeled for my email to the workshop. x
