Marble Painting
Need: baking dish, paint, marbles, paper.
To Do: Put a couple small blobs of paint on your paper, in the dish, and roll the marbles through to make some artwork. You can also discuss how the colours mix with older kids! :)
Counting Marbles / Dumping Marbles
Need: spoon, marbles, ice cube tray
To Do: Using the spoon to scoop up one marble at a time, place them in the ice cube tray. You can use this for fine motor control, counting, or just a little something to preoccupy your little one while you set up your craft (which is exactly what I did).
Marble Race/Marble Drop
Need: cereal box, tape, marbles
To Do: Cut the front off your box, cut the front into 4 sections, cut a marble sizes opening on one end of 3 sections and tape into your box, use the 4th section to prop up the back of your box!
**Note: I found that our marbles kept flying off the track, so I made a guard rail out of masking tape
