For today's penultimate activity, I decided not to go with a Christmas theme, or much of an anything theme, and simply use some of the materials we have in the cupboard on the tuff spot for a quick and simple set up.I pulled out the red and blue rice from our day 13 activity and a bag of chickpeas which I bought to use during the challenge, but never got round to using. I simply tipped them onto the tuff spot with some scoops and 4 toilet roll tubes.
As soon as Isabelle saw this, there was lots of squeals of excitement and "Oh! Oh! Oh!" to be heard. She dived in immediately to play with the "little balls" (chickpeas), and spent around 10 minutes in the tuff spot just pushing the bits around and doing a little scooping.
Unfortunately, she is currently in the grip of (very mild) chicken pox so that 10 minutes was all we got out of this activity. I'm glad it was a quick set up as it was a very quick play!
