Potion Making (& Outdoor Play Party)

Potion making


Welcome back to another Outdoor Play Party!  The weather here has been rubbish, we've been outside lots, but I haven't set any play stuff up for the boys for ages.  So in a rare ray of sunshine we had some potion making fun.

This is what I set up..... I put out leaves, mud, green tomatoes, shaving foam, soapy water, coloured water and some oats, plus some bowls and spoons and then let the boys get stuck in.

It was messy, but really nice to see all three boys play in a collaborative way.  Lots of pouring and stirring, plus of course all the imaginary things they were going to do with their mixtures.

A lot got spilt, but they had fun and would have stayed out a lot longer if we didn't have somewhere to go.

And this was the aftermath!  

What have you been up to outside?  If you've played outside this week then why not link up below?  My favourite from the last Party was from Laly Mom with their Pet Shop Pouring Play

  2. Simple but so much fun to encourage their imaginations, I can see they had lots of fun creating potions and working well together. Thanks for linking up and sharing their outdoor fun with Country Kids.
