Making Rice Pudding

A collage of children making rice pudding

The Under 2 classroom made rice pudding during our sensory activity in celebration of Diwali. The children practiced their fine motor skills and eye-hand coordination as they used various utensils to add ingredients into the mixing bowl. First, they helped by scooping rice with a ladle and transferring it into a mixing bowl. Next, they scooped brown sugar with a spoon, then poured milk and vanilla extract using a pitcher. Afterwards, the children took turns stirring all the ingredients together, and then transferred the mixture into a pot for cooking. During afternoon snack, we tasted our Diwali treat. So delicious!
