Hi friends! Are you ready for Halloween? We are gearing up for a ‘spook-tacular’ month at Glued To My Crafts and I hope you are as excited as I am!
My calendar is filled with tons of Halloween crafts so be sure to check back in the coming days!
As for today – we are kick-starting the theme off with this EASY Pumpkin Guts Sensory Play. Sensory bins are my favorite thing to pull together lately for my son. And since it’s a little early to be carving pumpkins – this is a great alternative to the traditional Halloween activity. {plus in my opinion more fun!}
The supplies are inexpensive {we are talking less than a few dollars} and if you know how to boil water – you are well on your way to pulling it together! #gluedtomycrafts
Supplies:
* Cooked Spaghetti Noodles
* Dry Pumpkin Seeds
* Oil {olive oil or vegetable oil}
* Plastic Pumpkin
Directions:
* First cook your noodles as you normally would. Drain.
* Run hot noodles under cold water for a few minutes, to cool them down. Drain.
* Add 1-2 tbsp of oil to the noodle mixture. Mix until noodles are well coated and not sticking together.
* Throw some pumpkin seeds into the noodle mix and transfer the mixture to your plastic pumpkin.
* Now grab some tongs and let your child play with their “pumpkin guts” in the plastic pumpkin.
* Discard when done playing.
