Caterpillar Soup

I read this activity in a book a few years ago.  It's a great activity for the kiddos while you're cooking in the kitchen.  ;)  I put a large bath towel down to cut down on mess.  Then, add a large bowl, mixing spoons, funnels, cups, measuring spoons, etc.  I also fill up squirt bottles with water (add food coloring to create "sauces"), old spice bottles with salt, and sprinkles.  They mix it all up and "cook".
