Flying Applesauce Monster

This morning we did some sensory therapy work with applesauce.  I tried applesauce because I figured that the white bean and potato we tried before was too thin a texture, and that is why it splattered everywhere.  I was hoping that a chunkier texture wouldn't get as much air

I put a dollop of applesauce on Caleb's tray and waited to see what kind of disaster would ensue...

At first he hesitantly touched it.  He would dip a finger or two in the applesauce and then drag it around the tray, kind of painting with the applesauce.

Then he started flailing his arms; he would pick up mounds of applesauce and fling it all over the dining room.

Finally he started hitting himself in the head (not too hard) and rubbing the applesauce into his hair.

 

That is when we called it quits and took a bath...

Btw, for the next month we are going to play the game, "who can find the flung chunks of applesauce hidden around the house."

I am hoping the dogs win.
