Let me start by saying that I was hoping this project would be perfect for toddlers and infants, but as you can see from the below video, my toddler got bored reallllll quick. So infant activity it is!

Fill up at least two bags of water and make each a different color by adding five drops of food coloring. I like for it to still be somewhat clear. I added a wooden animal that was each color to entice the toddler, but that's completely optional.

I placed Layla on her tummy with the three bags lined up and let her freely explore them. She doesn't have teeth so as you can see in the video, she enjoyed making raspberries on them and slobbering all over. At this level (5 months) I really just wanted to give her a unique experience, feel the cold bags, and move the water in the bag.
