A few of you have asked me about my coloured rice for sensory bins so here is the recipe!

Ingredients

• 1 cup uncooked rice

• 1/2 tsp of water

• 15 drops of food coloring of choice

• Reusable ziplock baggie

Note: to make enough for a sensory bin make 10-12 portions

Directions

1. Place rice into bag

2. Mix 1/2 tsp of water + 15 drops of food colouring per 1 cup of rice (when I made 12 cups of rice I used the entire mini bottle of food colouring)

3. Pour into the baggie, zip and shake the contents until the color has spread evenly. (You might need to add a few more drops of food colouring and water if need be.)

4. Place the rice out on parchment paper, on baking sheet and allow to dry for minimum of 2 hours. (I prefer overnight)

5. Once dry enjoy with your baby!
