Fire saftey month is here. Let your kids explore with fire colored rice. Take a bag of rice and split it into 1/3s. I used BJ's 20 pound bag because I did it for multiple classrooms. Once you have your rice split put in 3 baggies. Grab red and yellow food coloring. Squeeze food red food coloring in one bag, yellow in another bag, and equal parts red and yellow in the third bag to make orange. Take one bag at a time and shake it until the rice is the disired color. Mix rice in a large bowl. Let the rice dry for 24 hours or the food coloring will transfer onto hands. Enjoy. I hid letter magnets in the rice and my students identified the letters they found.
