Shaving cream fun

Today we explored with shaving cream. I asked that the shaving cream stay on the table and that only hands were used. No fake beards! This is a great way to practice writing letters and shapes. It is fun to put glitter in the shaving cream to add texture or add drops of liquid water colors to see colors being mixed to form new colors. Small cars can be rolled through it to make fun track designs. I use the unscented cream so the smell isn't overwhelming. The children love it! It can be messy so smocks are needed.
