The necessary ingredients for these potions: flour, rock salt, liquid watercolor paint, herbs and spices, water, and the final ingredients: vinegar and baking soda!

The Preschool Cool Cats class made sand slime this week to wrap up their desert unit. The children added and mixed the ingredients, then played with desert creatures in their slime! The children enjoyed playing a game of 'Guess who made these footprints' with their slime. Can you guess who made the imprint???
