What You Need
Kitchen sponges (in variety of sizes and colors)
Cookie cutters
Colored marker
Safety scissors



What You Do

Step 1
Set the sponges on a clear work space and place a cookie cutter on top.

Use letters, animal shapes, and favorite characters. Or, reduce Nick Jr. printables to the desired size on a copier and cut them out to use as tracing templates.



Step 2
Help your child trace around the cookie cutters or templates with a colored marker. They may need your help to cut out the shapes.




Step 3
Now create a special place in the bathroom to store these sponges. Then at bath time, let your child choose her favorite to wash up. For tips on keeping the sponges sanitary, please review, Bath-Time Safety Tips.
