Yogurt - Eat, Play, Create

A great sensory activity is to play with paint. Vivian puts EVERYTHING in her mouth so obviously I wasn't gong to give her real paint. I have read different homemade edible recipes and one of them suggested putting food coloring in yogurt. Well, I figured why use food coloring when I could just add strawberry sauce. So I cooked down some frozen strawberries with a little water until they began to release their juices, mashed them up a bit and let them cool in the fridge. When they were cooled through I stirred them into some Greek yogurt (one of Vivian's favorites) and put a spoonful on her highchair tray. There wasn't much hesitation, she dove right in.
