Play Together!

• Cause and Effect: Challenge your child to create a large tidal wave, and then a small one. Engage them by asking questions such as, “What happens to the water when it’s pushed hard?”, “Which tool works best to move the most water?”, and “Was that wave bigger or smaller than the one before?”.
• Dive Team: Who’s divers get more height? Take turns flipping figures into the water on the flipper. Whoever gets the highest jump, wins! Modify play by making the challenge about getting the biggest splash, or even most dives in the shortest amount of time.
• Seaside Storytelling: Get creative with water play! Make up a story about the rubber duck or other toys you’re playing with. Where are they from? What’s their favorite thing to do at the water table? See how silly the stories get as you build off of one another to add more details!
