Indoor "Sandbox" With Rice

A great "sandbox" for kids to use indoors is to fill a large plastic container with a bag of plain rice (I use a dishpan). Give them some measuring cups and funnels and they will play for hours! It's inexpensive and spilled rice can be vacuumed easily. Just watch that very small children don't try to eat the rice.

I did this with my other kids when they were young. My DD still talks about it and wants me to do this for my 3yr old (she is 12 now) I had dyed the rice using alcohol and food coloring.
