For Ocean Week<\/a> (June 1-9th) this year, we tried 5 sensory and play-based learning activities. It’s an ideal time of year to learn about the ocean and even more relevant to us because we’re moving to the east coast of Canada next month, where we’ll be fortunate enough to experience the wonders of the ocean ourselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Ocean Fizzy Play<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start the week off, we took our Tuff Tray outside on a beautiful day for some ocean fizzy play. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I filled the Tuff Tray up with water and some of our resin and acrylic ocean-themed pieces. In our round, metal spice box, I added Kidfolk and Co.’s scented potion powder <\/a>and some small add-ins. The Potion Powder is activated with water so as soon as the kids put it in the water, it fizzed and bubbled away. It was the perfect ingredient for some experimental science and small world fun. We played with it all day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
