Sand Storm

 My son has been really in love with outer space for a while now.  His favorite planet is Saturn and he is fascinated by the sand storms on Mars.  Just before bed we were exploring sand on the light panel - drawing with our fingers, making tracks with airplanes, etc.  I gave him the "five more minutes and its time for books and bed", and then he sucked me into some fun that lasted way more than 5 minutes (its a good thing he really has no concept of time - LOL).  He went into the closet, brought out a straw, and started blowing the sand.  "Its a sand storm, Mommy!!" 





blown sand art - great for oral motor development

"I made two planets, Mommy."




"That round one looks like a crater!  That's cool!"

Apparently it was bright in the room....sunglasses?  LOL
This activity was F-U-N!!
