We have the tuff spot out this afternoon witH rice and spoons and tubs. The 2 los are loving it. What does everyone else put in theirs for clean messy play?! We currently have ours on the floor so baby mindee (who's not here today) can join in x

A builders tray. Basically a big tray where the sides come up if that makes sense??

clean ( dry) heuristic play -
weetabix xrushed , rice krispies , any cereal!
Pasta ( usually dry but cooked works well too , especially when coloured - mine love coloured spaghetti)
dried lentils / peasd / beans etc
rice
sand
birdfood
leaves
flower petals
tinsel/baubles etc
sequins / beads
waterbeads ( the ones used for flower arrangements etc)

wet heuristic play

beans
shaving foam
mud
gloop
gellibath
bubblebath
snow
icecubes
ricepudding

I was in home bargains last week and bought a lovely plastic boot tidy tray. Will be great for messy play.

I use a tray that you stand Grow bags in, the children use it for lots of activities
