Fall Scented Rice Play Recipes
- Rice
- Food coloring
- Zip-seal bags
- Spices/extracts
We used:
- Apple pie spice to make apple scented. green rice.
- Pumpkin pie spice to make pumpkin scented, orange rice.
- Coffee extract to make coffee scented, brown rice.
- Cranberry oil to make cranberry scented, red rice.
- Clove spice to make clove scented, yellow rice.
Method
- Begin by filling a zip-seal bag with the desired amount of rice, using one bag for each rice variety that you wish to make.
- We used roughly 1 cup of rice per bag/variety.
- Add several drops of food coloring to each bag along with a bit of the desired aroma.
- Add 1-2 tablespoons of water to each bag.
- Then, seal them tightly and let the kids mix them up. My girls love shaking and mixing the bags.
- Continue shaking/mixing until the rice is fully saturated in color.
