Aluminium Foil Pan - Page 4 of 7

The Aluminium Pan Sifter Shake

Steps:

Place the Aluminium Foil Pan upside down on a table.
Use a pencil to poke ten holes through the bottom of the pan.
Flip the pan over and set it on top of a large bowl.
Pour a cup of dry rice and a handful of beads into the pan.
Hold the edges of the pan with both hands.
Shake the pan side to side to sift the rice into the bowl.
Use your pinching fingers to pick up the remaining beads!

Safety Tip:
Always supervise children during this activity. The pencil has a sharp point, and the rice and beads are small objects that can be a choking hazard.

The Craft Stick Raft Challenge

Steps:

Place four craft sticks side-by-side on the table.
Use two long strips of masking tape to stick them together into a flat raft.
Fill your aluminium foil pan halfway with cool water.
Carefully set your craft stick raft on top of the water so it floats.
Use your thumb and pointer finger to place one button at a time onto the raft.
Keep adding buttons until the raft begins to dip or sink into the water!

Safety Tip:
Adult supervision is required. Buttons and masking tape are small and can be a choking hazard.

The Rice Pan Bridge Cross

Steps:

Pour Rice into the Aluminium Foil Pan.
Place three Craft Sticks across the pan width to form narrow bridges.
Put a few small Blocks on the table next to the pan.
Give your child the Tongs to pick up one Block.
Challenge them to walk the Block across a Craft Stick bridge.
If the Block falls into the Rice, try again!
Deliver all the Blocks to the other side to win.

Safety Tip:
Always supervise your child when playing with small blocks or rice. These materials can be a choking hazard. Ensure the pan is on a flat surface to prevent spills.

The Noodle Button Tunnel

Steps:

Cut a piece of yarn about three feet long using your scissors.
Tie one end of the yarn to a sturdy chair leg.
Thread the other end through the center of a pool noodle.
Place your buttons in the aluminium foil pan at the start.
Hold the loose end of the yarn tight so it stays straight.
Ask your child to slide a button onto the yarn.
They must push it all the way through the pool noodle tunnel.
Have them drop the buttons into different baking cups at the finish line!

Safety Tip:
Adult supervision is required. Small buttons are a choking hazard. Keep all small materials away from children who still place objects in their mouths.

Foil Pan Table Skater

Steps:

Use masking tape to create a winding track on a table.
Use markers to draw arrows on the tape to show the way.
Place two sponges inside the aluminium foil pan for hand cushions.
Have your child stand and place one hand on each sponge.
Ask them to slide the pan along the tape path.
They should follow the curves without lifting the pan.
Encourage them to reach far to the left and right.

Safety Tip:
Make sure the table is at a comfortable height for your child to lean on safely.
