Squishy shaving Foam
Shaving foam is a great activity that you can try at home. All you need is a tray and some shaving foam, and a towel to wipe hands on when the activity is finished.
The shaving foam is pumped onto the tray and the children start exploring the feel of the soft foam and how it feels as they squish it through their fingers. Drops of food colouring can be added to the foam to experiment with colour and how it changes and develops in the shaving foam.
To help children with pre-literacy skills, you can draw patterns in the foam, letters or numbers. Watching the children as they explore this simple activity is a great way to keep them busy and its so easy to clean up afterwards.
