How to make Pipe Cleaners in a Colander-Sensory Play

What's furry and bright and will help stimulate and entertain your baby/toddler for a whole ten minutes? Pipe cleaners in a colander!

Simply buy a packet of rainbow coloured pipe cleaners and get out your old colander/strainer and watch your baby/toddler become surprisingly engaged in this fun and easy activity!

As Brooks is only ten months old, I have tied the other end of pipe cleaner in a knot to stop them from pulling through.

But for a toddler, you can leave the pipe cleaners as is and encourage them to try and poke them through the little holes!

I supervised Brooks to ensure he didn't poke himself with any of the pipe cleaners or try to eat them!

♡ Our 10 month old son, Brooks, loved the bright coloured pipe cleaners and their furry feeling! ♡

♡ Enjoy!
