You will need:

• Bread (any kind will do)
• Small containers
• Sweetened condensed milk
• Food colouring

Start by mixing sweetened condensed milk and food colouring in the containers. Using a clean paint brush or pastry brush kids paint their bread to make rainbows or pictures. Next, blot the bread with a paper towel to remove any excess ‘paint’ so you don’t make a mess in your toaster.

This activity will help your child develop independence in the kitchen. Squeezing an orange is also a great way to strengthen the hands and develop the fine motor muscles to prepare for writing.
