Color Cubes

With Summer quickly approaching and the warm weather that seems to have been around since umm March. I figured it was about time to try out some of the fun water activities I have seen on Pinterest. Color Cubes. Yep super easy just put a little food coloring into your ice cube tray add some water of course and wait for it freeze. I filled a few larger tuber wear bowls with water and then left the rest up to Cole.

He started by separating the colors into different bowls but by the end he had mixed up all the colors. Which left a lot of green water. I’m a novice when it comes to dealing with food coloring. It got a little messy. But that was the best part.

 Once the cubes had melted I told him he could bring the water over to his water table and play with the green water. He’s eyes just lit up and he proclaimed “I’m Strong” and took each bowl over. Some made it to the table some didn't but he loved every second of it.

 And I’m happy to report that after his bath that night all traces of food coloring had disappeared from his hands. Will definitely be doing this one again this summer with more colors !
