Bean Table

Buy an under the bed storage container and fill it with uncooked beans. I buy a big 10 pound bag from costco and replace it every 6 months or so. Kids love to run their fingers through the beans, dump them from cup to cup, or find small toys in the bean table. If the kids can't keep the beans in the plastic container it helps to lay a sheet out beneath it and then simply dump any spilled beans back into the container when they are finished.

Some things that can be put in the bean table:

empty film containers
plastic animals
small cups
paper towel tubes
