Rainbow Noodles

March is all about spring, bright colors/rainbows and of course that sneaky little leprachaun who causes chaos for teachers everywhere. I subscribe to a few email lists of other bloggers and thus get some pretty cool crafty ideas in my inbox every week. Rainbow noodles: commence! 


Not one to heed the advice of my husband, I cooked the whole box of noodles. You will see...it made the project a little extreme.


Then we started adding food coloring and mixing. V was curious, of course.





Dinner anyone?
The towel was essential to keep sticky pasta off the floor. V was ready to squish



Cautious at first...

Let's just empty this whole bin


How high can this go?

The one hand method was just too slow and she really did like how it felt I think. Curious, but enjoyable. She barely even looked up as you can see from the pictures.



Hmmm
We had to throw in a grownup size spoon and "fork" too since she is obsessed with using them now.




And a sensory project with the ever curious Miss V would not be complete without a little taste test.


All in all, it was a fun, messy, squishy March project that I enjoyed a lot more than a room full of crazy kiddos post leprechaun visit LOL

Aftermath 
Here is the link to the original idea. Warning: the pasta really started to smell afterwards and we threw it out pretty quickly!
