Sit with your kid at the table.

Place the tray and bowls with sand next to you.

Show the little one how to take the sand and pour a thin stream on the tray, drawing various figures and patterns. 

Mix colors and explain your actions.

Let your kid practice for a while.

Then offer him/her to pour an even layer of sand and draw with the stick as he/she wishes.
