Monday Made It ~ Colored Rice, Brain Sprinkles, & DIY Binder

Happy Monday, Friend!

Another week of fun projects to share.

Thanks, Tara for hosting this great link-up!

I hope you enjoy them!

My first project was making new colored rice.  I LOVE sensory bins for the classroom. My last batch lasted a LONG time but it was time to make some new rice! My son could not wait to get his hands in it! If you want to read more about how to make it or grab the direction sheet you can read about it on this blog post:
Kids LOVE Colored Rice! Here is an easy how to!

One fun classroom idea

is "Brain Sprinkles."  I saw the pin on Pinterest by Mrs Nichol's Corner but the pin did not land on a working blog.

Here is our version of "Brain Sprinkles":

I used colored rice, sprinkle jar from the Dollar Tree, confetti stars, hot glue, and leftover clear laminating film.

 

First, I scooped the colored rice into the jar.  I mixed the confetti stars in with the rice.

Next, I hot glued the laminating film inside the top of the lid to cover the holes.

After that, I created a label and attached it to the jar using hot glue.

We are so excited to share our DIY Directions with you!  We created a binder cover and spine that fits a 1" binder for your to keep all of your DIY projects organized in. Just cut the spine to fit, slip in the cover, add some protective sleeves, and slip in your new DIY ideas! We have so many more coming your way.

Here is what our binder looks like:
