Whipped Cream Sensory Tray is a fun tasty Sensory activity for little kids and a great alternative to the Shaving Cream Sensory Bins.
My 14 month old is still testing everything out via her mouth. Therefore, many of the activities we do around here are safe for little ones.
Instead of the commonly used shaving cream used for sensory play, I decided to use whipped cream.
To make Whipped Cream Sensory Bin
You’ll need:
- 1 Tub of Whipped Cream
- A Large tray or square pan (anything you can use to spread out the whipped cream)
- A spoon
- Mixing, scooping, and pouring toys for the kids to play
Optional Add-ins
- Food Coloring of different colors
- Sprinkles
Note: For my original creation, I used 1 box heavy whipping cream and whipped the cream with a mixer until it became like whipped cream. My guess is that I didn’t have a tub of cream on hand at the time and also, back then, I was testing out and experimenting a lot more for the blog.
What to do:
- Empty tub of whipped cream on the tray.
- Spread with a spoon.
- Add different drops of food coloring, if using. Swirl.
- Top with Sprinkles, if using.
The kids can now play with the Whipped Cream Sensory Bin, test out the consistency and even pretend to make their own ice-creams!
She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness (Proverbs 31:27).
That’s a great idea. My daughter thinks every thing needs to pass her mouth too!
I know, it is definitely difficult to find activities that the little ones won’t put in their mouths.
