I'm seriously loving my busy bags and K is having a blast with them too. Here's whats in our bag this month:
1. Sorting objects by colour-red, yellow, green blue.
You can download your own FREE copy of the color sorting printables from Home Grown Hearts.
2. Felt Board: Transportation
3. Velcro box: I added velcro stickers to his animals and placed the other part on the lid of the box. K can practice attaching them and detaching them or transferring into the box and out.
4. Brown Bear Heads and Tails puzzles
You can download your own FREE copy from 1+1+1=1.
5. Paint brushes: Paint the furniture and outdoors with water or using our imaginations.
6. Leap frog farm animal puzzle magnets on baking sheet. K loves these because they sing and make animal noices.
7. Search & Find Animals Book
8. Ice cube tray, pom poms and tongs to practice transferring/ sorting by colour
9. Foam Letters: sort by colour, name letters, play with in water
10. Shaker: water bottle filled with rice and jingle bells to make music
11. Masking Tape: To tape shapes, numbers and letters on the floor to walk on/ drive cars on. Can also use the tape to make roads of a town and build buildings with his Duplo/ play with his Little People.

ReplyDeleteI am so glad that I have come across your blog!! We are leaving for Disney World soon, and it's a 12 hour drive. I have been trying to find items to pack to keep the babies busy. I do have a DVD player in the vehicle, but I want something besides movies. Thanks so much! Visiting from Under the Table and Dreaming.
