However, I have managed to put these tubs out at a different time during the day. A first grade teacher called her tubs "Tub Time", so I stole that name. Now I don't have to put them out in the morning, if I end up changing my mind on the morning.
Right now, after my kiddos finish their handwriting, I let them pick a tub to play with until most of the class is finished. I LOVE it! It gives my kiddos free time and if that scares you, most of the "toys" I have out are fun STEM activities or building type activities.
Check them out!
Like I said, a lot of the things I put out are building activities. These connecting shapes were a huge hit this last week!
These cool connectors are as cool as their name. My kiddos loved building towers.
These pipe connectors comes with a big board to use. I usually have 3 kiddos per tub, but for this one I have two.
This last one reminds me of tinker toys! This wheel building kit comes with 30 wheels and 36 sticks, so I would get two sets! And the price will allow you to get two!

These are really great ideas. I knew personally that morning tubs wouldn't be for me, but this is a great alternative.
