Sensory Bags for Preschool

While looking on Pinterest one day I found an interesting link for sensory bags for preschool classes. There were several fun ideas such as an ocean theme, alphabet theme, and they filled the bags with hair gel, water, and even shaving cream. We decided to try shaving cream in our bag and we used fun shapes to make stamp imprints and then the kids even had fun using their hand print in the shaving cream. This activity was really fun for those kids to had issues with getting their hands dirty.

Quilled cheerleader birthday card...

My next-door neighbor had a birthday so I wanted to make something special. She is a cheerleader that I made a special birthday card for... The colors for her cheerleading squad were black, red, and white.

Decorated Cards with Shaving Cream and Quilling

I put shaving cream onto a baking sheet and dropped two colors of food coloring, then gently swirled it with my fingers. I then placed the cards down into the shaving cream, picked them up gently and raked the shaving cream off. As you can see, it leaves a tie-dye effect onto the card and then I created some quilling to embellish them. I hope you like the variated swirls!
