Have the children help you create a timer to help them take turns. You will need two clean, dry 2-liter soda bottles, a tornado tube and salt. Have the children help pour the salt into one of the bottles. Connect the other bottle using the tornado tube. When finished, show the children how the salt runs through the tube. Time it using a real timer. Encourage the children to use the timer to take turns using toys.
