The other day I was cleaning out part of my pantry and realized I had several boxes of crappy easy to make meals that had long expired. Seeing as I hadn't made them for years I opened them all up, recycled the boxes, threw out the sauces and kept the noodles for play time! Frugal right? :)
I then went to my selection of random scoops and such and pulled out a few I thought may be fun with noodles. Lil Man was making a HUGE mess when he sat/stood on a chair to play so I had him get on the table to play easier. Yup, I'm that mom. Then they each had at it scooping, pouring, shaking, dumping the noodles and rice. It didn't hold their attention as much as I'd have liked but oh well, not every sensory tub is a complete winner. Maybe I'll dye the noodles at some point for a more colorful experience.
