Does this sound familiar?
My kids are so board! But because of time/money/the pandemic/too many toys already, there is NO WAY I am buying them any more toys!
Great news!
Your house already has TONS of great toys for your child that might not seem like toys at first.
Where to find toys
Start in your kitchen. Open up your cupboards and drawers and see what "toys" you can find for your child.
The "toys" you are looking for are loose parts. They can serve as great play objects for your baby or toddler.
Here are some ideas
- plastic mixing bowls
- metal colanders
- plastic lidded containers
- metal funnels
- metal slotted spoons
- wooden salad bowls
- metal tongs
