One of my kids' favorite preschool activities is playing with rainbow rice. Yes, you read correctly, rainbow colored rice. It may sound strange but I can assure you that most kids love playing in rice. There is just something about the texture of it, the way it slides through their little fingers and the way it pours and spills, that kids find fascinating...relaxing even.
Since school is out for the summer I thought I'd give it a try at home. This was my first attempt and I have to say it was surprisingly simple and inexpensive. You may already have everything you need around the house.
Here's what you need...
rice, rubbing alcohol & liquid food coloring
Now here's how you do it...
Scoop rice into a large Ziploc.
I used 3 oversized cups per Ziploc.
