Thank you for putting this up, I am going to have to try this with my 4 year old daughter who has a lot of SPD issues. Ithink this will calm her down a lot when she is have a melt down. can you tell me how much corn startch and wather you used in this? thanks!
Letting him do it his way is the only way!! Thats my way to. I have ppl come to the house to work with him and had to say firmly, let go of his hand!!
A really pretty thing to try is getting a cup, of water then putting some oil on top then on top of the oil some food colour on top, just a few drops. Then you need to ush the colour through using a tooth pick or a pencil. Very swirly!!
That looked very beutiful and enjoyable. My mainstream art techers would not have liked this, they as I remember had only one way of doing art and that was their way (there way was not my way, but when i was a kid i did what i was told).
I am ure we call that mix gloop, over in scotland.
My son is autistic and has sensory processing issues so "do it my way" gets us nowhere. We spend a lot of time working with him to develop new meaningful and attractive ways to share information.
I had a lot of fun with the color swirl project too. The first swirl in the video turned into my self- portrait complete with big glasses and long hair. Although my nose is not usually green :0)
The mix seems to go by many names - mostly it's just fun!

Hi Rainbowmummy,
