Discovery Table for Monster Stories

For our Monster Stories theme we put colored paper in the discovery table.  We added scissors and hole punchers to the paper to help with fine motor development.

Discovery Table for "Great Works of Art"

For out "Great Works of Art" unit we decided to put shaving cream in the discovery table.  Each day we add different colors of powdered tempra paint to the table so that the kids can practice mixing colors.

Discovery Table for Dr. Seuss

For the Dr. Seuss unit, we decided to put Oobleck in the discovery table.  Oobleck is a mixture of liquid starch and white school glue.  Click here to learn how to make Oobleck (they call it GAK on this website).  You can make it any color you would like.  We decided to make it green because it was inspired by the Dr. Seuss book Bartholomew and the Oobleck.  The mixture is stretchy, slimy, and lots of fun.
