Rice!  There are so many great things to do with the rice bucket, this time to go with our Valentine's theme I hid foam hearts.  To add to the learning, when the kids found a heart they were supposed to match it to the right color cup.  We ended up with two cups having all of the hearts because the kids got go excited about finding a heart they didn't care about matching the color.  Then we ended up with all of the hearts back in the bucket because hiding them is as much fun as finding them.  It didn't take the kids long to completely forget about the hearts because they started using the cups to scoop up and dump the rice...into their hands, into another cup, and onto the table/floor:)
