My kids love watching Ice melt. I think it would be rather boring, but they are constantly asking to have some ice to melt. Sure they don’t always stay in one place while it melts, but they love to play with the ice by setting it out on the hot pavement.
This activity is a sensory science experiment. Toddlers are called little scientists because they are constantly experimenting on their environment to learn how things work.
While simple, you can talk with them about how the ice goes from a solid to a liquid. This is something they can witness for themselves.
The great thing is that all you have to have is ice. Little to no preparation is involved, and it entertains them from anywhere between 5-20 min.

I am the mother of four busy children. I have two preschoolers and two toddlers (though one is only just a toddler). I have a bachelors in University studies with a minor in English and a cluster of child development. This means I was going for school as an English major but then decided that I really didn't want to be going to school until my oldest was two. My original plan was to go for a minor in child development.
My child development classes have helped tremendously with my family life. My oldest child has had some developmental delays, though they still have not diagnosed them.
My busy family life and busy life in general make it necessary that I take some time away to spend some time with my children doing something fun. I want to build a relationship with my kids, and this is done one activity at a time.
