About a month ago I shared a game I made up for my daughter {you can find it here}. Today I have another one for you:)
I bought my little one a cute little cupcake set for her play kitchen but I gave the cupcake pan a second use with this game!
{grumpy didn't like when I asked her to stop and say cheese}
I laid out 12 glass "rocks" {that was what she called them} and asked her to put one in each hole.
We also counted them, placed them into and out of the cup, put two in each hole - after each activity she would dump them out {I think her favorite part}. She LOVED it! It kept her busy for awhile!
She would play independently and also asked me to give her some directions, which she liked to follow! I wish she would listen when I asked her to do other things too, but this momma is not THAT lucky:)
I know that grumpy face all to well. You'd think Riley was Suri glaring at the paparazzi sometimes. This activity is great.
ReplyDeleteI love that face of hers! She is adroable, even in her grumpy state :). Another easy and entertaining game to do with little ones. Thanks for sharing!
