John had the BEST time gluing the corn flake cereal to the tree picture! I had him smash the cereal down on to the paper. He enjoys textures and has sensory integration disorder. I had him watch as we lifted the tree to a stand-up position.......the "leaves" fell off of the tree.......like FALL! How awesome! Then, they were all over the floor (nothing a vacuum can't pick up!), so John took his Hot Wheels car through the "leaves" and threw them on the car! He was remembering us driving down the mountain roads around here. He wanted to eat them, but they had already been glued. However, you can make this a full sensory experience!! You can even incorporate transferring to metal pans, counting them (I like the metal muffin pans for noise and counting). I also broke out the Cocoa Krispies and they added a chocolate-scented adventure!
