DIY – Coloured Chickpeas Toy

Food can be an interesting element to try new DIY. Today, we would create a toy for kids to have fun with chickpeas.

What You Need:

  • Food Colour
  • Ziploc pouch
  • Vinegar
  • Chickpeas

Step 1

Put some chickpeas in various pouches.

Step 2

Add some food colour, one spoon of water and 1 teaspoon of vinegar to each pouch.

Vinegar is an essential element in this process as it helps in making the chickpeas and the colour last longer.

Step 3

Mix each pouch of chickpeas well after adding colour, water and vinegar and let it dry for about half an hour.

Step 4

Take all the chickpeas out on a plate and shuffle them all together.

Viola! Your sensory chickpeas are ready to play with.

A simple and easy way to create some recreation for your child at home and what a super way to play with food turning into toys. Such toys are exciting and handy for the kids to have fun at any place and at any time. Disclaimer: It is necessary for a parent or a guardian to be around during the process and while the children are playing with the toy and discourage mouthing.
