I don't know about you but, my two year old loves to put everything in his mouth. When I want to give him something fun to do that my 5 year old will also enjoy I love whipping up a batch of edible sensory material. It's even better when the recipe only calls for a few common ingredients and takes less than 15 minutes to create! Check out my list of 10 fantastically simple and edible sensory recipes that will leave you with a few minutes to go to the bathroom alone without the fear of your toddler chomping on something undesirable.

1. Slippery Fish

These slimy fellas will entertain your kids and won't leave them with a sugar high! Find the recipe and directions at TwoDaloo!

This isn't a recipe per se but, kids love to play with just about anything if it feels interesting and is easy to manipulate.
