Cooking Up Some Purple Magic

  • Pop the 3-4 cups cavatappi pasta into a ziplock bag, adding a splash of vinegar and a few generous drops of purple food coloring or liquid watercolor.
  • Seal the bag and let your little witches and wizards shake it up until the pasta is thoroughly coated in purple enchantment.
  • Spread the now-purple pasta out on a tray lined with parchment paper or wax paper and allow it to dry, ready to add a burst of color to your sensory bin!

Creating the Witch Cauldron Sensory Bin

  • Simply fill your sensory bin with green colored rice, creating a mystical base for your potion.
  • Sprinkle in some orange lentils, and don’t forget to add your now enchanted purple pasta! The cavatappi pasta can wriggly worms!
  • Place mini cauldrons, scoops, and a variety of creepy crawlers, eyeballs, and fake bones, inviting exploration, discovery, and of course, a whole lot of concocting fun!
