Place several absorbent items in a tub of water, such as different sizes or colors of sponges, a small washcloth and some large pom-poms. Encourage the children to soak them in the water and then squeeze the water out. Say, “All these things will hold water. How can you get the water out? Right, you can squeeze the water back into the tub.” Monitor play carefully to make sure the children do not put objects in their mouths.
