Pretty self explanatory. As I was at the store last night looking for "travel games" for the kids for our up coming trip I spotted one of those Find it Games that come in a tube and look like lots of fun. But then I checked the price tag and $20 was more than I wanted to spend. So I decided to make my own for free.
I used items from our button bag that have various shaped buttons and ribbons. I added a pom pom, a car, a penny, and some pirate gold and ended up with about 45 different objects to find. I wrote them all down first. If you were to place all the objects on a piece of white paper and then take a picture of them and then print it out, little kids could know what to find.
Then I filled a Gallon size Ziploc bag with rice:
You could make individual (smaller) bags with quart size Ziploc bags. Then I filled it with all my objects and typed up and printed out the "Finding List" and lastly shook the bag with goodies up!
What a great idea! I'm totally copying!
ReplyDeleteI think I clicked too soon and lost my comment. Again I said this is a wonderful, creative idea that I am going to pass on to my grandchildren.
ReplyDeleteIt makes me so happy when people like my ideas! I've been trying to keep mine away from my children until our trip. I think too, I filled mine a little too full of rice. I've taken a couple cups of the rice out! It's really fun for adults too! I think it would be great for church or doctor's office waiting room visits:)
ReplyDeleteGreat idea!!
