Digging in the dirt becomes even sweeter with this playful treat!
Making dirt pudding cups with gummy worms is a hands-on activity that builds fine motor skills, early math concepts, and sensory exploration. As little hands scoop, crumble, and layer, they practice counting, sequencing, and texture processing. Best of all, food-based activities bring families together, turning simple moments into lasting memories of laughter and creativity!
