Oats. Really oats




Yes I give my kids a tub of oats to play with.  It is the best sensory bin EVER for us. 

Stella can eat it - no harm done.

Anna and Kate play and play, they pretend, stir, dig, pour and just run their little fingers through the oatiness.  Sure it goes everywhere, but nothing a broom can't fix.

I bought a 1kg bottle of oats, we just clean them up back into the bottle.  Sure you lose a few oats with every play, we have had ours out about 6 times and still have over 3/4 of the bottle.

Go on give your kids some oats , take them outside if the mess stresses you out.

That sounds fun! Although I'm quietly confident that oat digging would turn into an oat snowstorm in our house! Boys *sign*

Good idea cause my baby eats everything and I mean everything!
