Touch Sensory Crafts for Kids

Textured Painting
Fuzzy Craft Stick Puppets
Star Fish Paper Mache
Slimy Goo

	Mix the different colors with a different item.  Some suggestions are using oatmeal, flour, coffee grounds, sand, etc.
	Set the paper on the table and let your kids begin to create their painting.
	Have them use their hands to they can feel the difference while painting. Tip:  They can use a paint brush to make fine details if needed.
	Allow the painting to dry.

Supplies

	Cut several strips of orange felt for the stripes of the tiger.  Glue these on the cardboard roll.
	Cut 3 pipe cleaners in half.  Near the top of the roll (just below where the nose would be) poke each half of the pipe cleaner through the roll on both sides of the nose.  Push back on the pipe cleaners (on the inside of the roll) to hold in place.   Tip:  To help hold in place, tape the pipe cleaners down on the inside.
	Glue the two cotton balls on the roll.  Cut a small triangle using the pink felt and glue this above the cotton balls.
	Cut 2 larger triangles using the pink felt and glue this to the inside of the roll (on top) to make the ears.
	Take the orange pipe cleaner and poke this through the back of the toilet paper roll towards the bottom to create the tail.  Bend it to make it look more like a tail.
	Using the black and white marker, draw on the mouth and eyes (or use the wiggle eyes).
	Now take your craft stick and glue this to the inside of the paper roll (in the back).

Supplies

	Mix together 1 part flour and 2 parts water to make the paper mache paste.  It should be a glue like consistency. Tip:  Add more water if too thick and more flour if too runny.
	Take several pages or your news paper and twist into two points. Using more newspaper, create 3 more points of the star fish and tape together.
	Place the 2 paper plates in the middle of the star fish (in front and back).  Staple the plates together.  This will form the body of the star fish.
	Tear remaining newspaper into strips.  Dip each strip into the paper mache paste and place around the star fish until completely covered. Let this first layer dry completely (about 24 hours). Repeat for the second layer using newspaper.  For the third and last layer, tear strips of brown paper bag.   Optional:  You can use newspaper for the last layer and then simply paint the star fish.
	While the star fish is still wet with paper mache paste from the last layer, sprinkle the shake and bake and crushed cereal all over the star fish.  This will give your project a rough texture like a star fish. Now spinkle some cinnamon (optional) to add some darker brown colors and a fun smell to this project.

	Pour some cornstarch into a bowl.
	Add a little bit of water until the goo runs from the spoon.
	Add desired food color.
