I’m sure you have seen these paint bags floating around pinterest. Teachers use them to have their students get some hands on practice for tracing letters and numbers. This summer a colleague, Emily Lansden, made a version for her summer language group!
Under each paint bag she placed stickers on paper. Students took turns searching for items under the paint. Such an easy idea that elicitired a lot of great language! Thanks Emily!!

Did she water down the paint? It looks that way!! Cute idea!
Nope, just mixed two kinds of paint. Don’t fill them too full. When they push down on the bag all the paint moves to the sides and you can find the stickers!
so cool! reminds me of those oily stickers from when i was kid (do you have any idea of what i am talking about?)
Great idea! I did one of these with my son a few weeks ago. Great application to therapy!
I love this! And the best part…no mess! lol Great idea!
You can also use colored hair gel from the dollar store. Super easy!!
