Instructions:

Fill your large container with water.
Add some of the liquid watercolor to color the water. We used blue!
Add a variety of colorful flowers and some small bowls. We liked these cheap ones from the dollar store because they floated on top of the water.
Have your child practice sorting each different color of flower into different bowls.
Let the scoop, splash, and have fun!
Note: Please make sure to always supervise children around water.
