Add 1 cup of corn starch to 1/4 cup of water and get a quick science experiment sure to entertain.
I gave Scarlett the jungle creatures and she spent an hour watching the creatures sink and then saving them from the depths of bowl, washing them off, and doing it all over again.
And if you want even more entertainment, turn it into a lesson in color mixing. Scarlett and I chose to mix food coloring into the quick sand one color at a time, watching the color spread and guessing what color would form next.
