 Sweet Pea is 24 months old. From: A family friend told us about this great “Does it Fit?” activity. Procedure: Cut an empty paper towel roll in half and gather a collection of objects that do and don’t fit through the roll. We used a dog bone, a chap stick tube, a ball, some […]  I bought a pair of plastic tongs for under $1 at a Party America and put them on a tray with 1 basket of counting bears and another empty basket. Still enamored with the teddy bears, Sweet Pea was ready to bring this tray to her table as soon as she saw it. […]  
Sweet Pea is 23 months. After Sweet Pea’s trouble with the tiny Where’s George Stickers a couple of weeks ago, I was really excited about finding this Kumon Let’s Sticker & Paste book at Target. It has pages designed for sticking and gluing specifically provided stickers and cut-outs. For example, the first page is […] Sweet Pea is 23 months old. We got this Little Tikes Tap A Tune Play Piano from Great Aunt Jackie for Sweet Pea’s first birthday and it had been out of circulation for a while. I try to rotate out Sweet Pea’s toys so they stay fresh and interesting. I left it out on […]
I used to love “Paint with Water” books so when Sweet Pea’s Great Aunt Jackie brought one over for her, I think I was as excited as Sweet Pea. Sweet Pea spent a lot of time looking through the pictures of Spot’s Busy Day, even before I […]  1+1+1=1’s Pacman had fun with a Where’s George $1 sticker set from Target so when I saw the same set, I thought we would give it a try. Sweet Pea liked looking at the stickers and seemed excited by the book, but the stickers were so tiny she couldn’t really work with them. I […] 
I found this idea at Aday Family Memories, but used pom-poms instead of pasta as another reader suggested. Sweet Pea really had to concentrate to get the puffs into the bottle. She was very intent on getting every last one of them into the bottle and then loved shaking them back out again. We […] 
I bought some plastic animal shaped cookie cutters and Sweet Pea had a fun time using them on Play-Doh. She is still learning to regulate how hard she has to press to make the cutter actually cut, but she was always thrilled when we would pull away the extra dough […] I read a tot school idea about crumpling paper and was inspired to have Sweet Pea crumple pieces of yellow tissue paper for a mane and then glue them onto a lion head (a cut-out yellow circle w/ construction paper eyes, mouth and nose). Her idea of crumpling was not quite as thorough as […] 
I got this idea from the 1+1+1=1 Tot Trays site. You punch a few holes in an empty cereal box and then provide some dry pasta for your toddler to punch through the holes. It was super easy and Sweat Pea loved it. She played with it for 30 minutes […] |
