Step 1Make the swamp water: Mix chia seeds, water, and green food coloring in a bowl. Let sit and refrigerate for about 2 hours until thick and gel-like.
Step 2Prepare fizzy water: In a separate container, mix water, blue food coloring, and a spoonful of baking soda.
Step 3Set up the bin: Add the chia “swamp” to one side of your sensory bin and the fizzy water to the other (or use separate containers). Add toy frogs and tools.
Step 4Play & explore: Let kids scoop, pour, and explore textures. Add small amounts of vinegar to the lake water to create a fun fizzy reaction.
