Chia slime is an amazing way to help little ones get used to slippery, slimy, and cold textures—often a challenge for those with sensory aversions. Once they're comfortable, it can make a huge difference during mealtime! This activity is not only fantastic for conquering texture fears, but it's also taste-safe. Plus, it boosts memory function, enhances fine motor skills, sharpens problem-solving abilities, and encourages social interaction.
Activity details
Age suitability: 6 years plus (with supervision)
Can I reuse: This activity can be popped into the fridge and reused.
How long a child will play: It can be disheartening when we put in effort to set up an activity and our child only interacts for a few minutes before losing interest. This is NORMAL. A child's attention span is roughly 1 minute per year of age, making a 3 year old's attention span around 3-5 minutes. These minutes are still super powerful and make a huge impact, so never ever consider it a waste of time, I promise it's benefiting your child. We recommend to leave activities out for at-least a few hours so your child can go back and fourth when they feel.
