Rainy day ideas

[Lola]

So I'm home with Q today and need something to keep him entertained. I looked on Pinterest but didn't find anything good. We have no craft supplies besides paint.
So far I have:
-painting on the Windows ( in a bag)
-making play doh

I also have a large oatmeal container that I could use for something, but not sure what.

help!

Do you have dry oatmeal or rice? What about filling a mixing bowl and letting him scoop with measuring spoons?

Wash out the kitchen sink and fill it with water and soap. Give him some plastic utensils! M loves this.

Someone gave their kid qtips and an egg cartoon upside down with holes and it looked entertaining. A strainer with pipe cleaners.

That was me! He has soccer destroyed the egg carton.

I have a feeling he'd throw it all over the place.

We are going to Target later today and Build a Bear tomorrow to burn a gift card she got for her first birthday...

My mom uses videos in her classroom from go noodle - I think you have to log in, but they're basically 2 minute dance breaks, if you need that.

Cornstarch plus water is really cool, and cleans up with just water (maybe in the bath tub to contain the mess?)

I did the finger painting in the bag thing. C wasn't too impressed by it....

We do crayola ultra washable markers a lot, dd loves them. A few drops of food coloring in cool whip either on the high chair tray or dollar store table cloth taped to the floor/table. You can use colored cool whip or shaving cream to color easter eggs with toddlers too!

Building forts is fun too.

We have Crayola window markers that I forgot about, I'm definitely going to have to get them out tomorrow.
