    Default Easter/spring tuff tray

    Managed to dig my tuff tray out of the shed over the weekend and want to do an easter/spring themed one, I've got some of those plastic eggs so will use something like rice or stones for them to fill and shake, chicks and rabbits from small world play, and will shred some green and yellow paper. ..
    Any other ideas for what I could include?

    Small flowers ... real/dried/fake
    Small easter chicks ( those little yellow pompom type ones )
    I've got some rubber and wooden eggs in mine (plus plastic eggs to fill with coloured rice)
    Easter sequins (from the works)
    Egg cups
    Twigs to hang little eggs/decs on

    Xx

    Didn't have time to prepare it so they got rice crispies (as today's children love filling and emptying things!), tubs and spoons and plastic eggs that they also filled with cereal, rabbits sheep and hens from the farm box and it is still amusing them hours later as they keep going back to it

    Sounds good! My 16 month old today enjoyed helping make Rice Krispie buns and then relaying the guinea pigs cage with Sawdust so thinking that might be nice in tuff spot !

    we went to the farm aiming to look at the chicks and eggs to link in with easter and spring. The two boys were much much more interested in the cows , and their 'willies' which don't have poo they have milk!!
    Ok so they have really been fascinated by the cows ...so now my planned sensory tray of fluffy pastel eastery bits has been ditched.
    It now has very watery white paint milk , milk bottles , lids and plastic cows!!
