Instagram post 2199733506140531983_8736387314 Sensory bins don't have to be complicated or messy! . This simple jingle bell bin is from Katie's toddler days in Texas (if the shorts and tank top didn't give it away!). . I used red and green pom poms, foam blocks, Unifix cubes, and of course -- bells! I added in some tongs, a magnet, and a few different sized containers for her to fill. . Fun and easy, with a STEM component, as she explored why the bells stuck to the magnet, but the other toys didn't. 🔔
Instagram post 2198956370874071674_8736387314 The subtitle of this book has been calling to me lately. Man, am I easily distracted! . More focus in 2020 is a major goal, as is less time on my phone/computer. . What are your goals for the new year?
Instagram post 2197325730144570548_8736387314 This is our fourth December in the Midwest, and we have a shocking lack of snow on the ground. ❄️ . I whipped up a batch of plain white playdough so we can make little snowmen. We can also talk about spheres, count beads, and work those little fingers.

Instagram post 2195907297002642674_8736387314 Do your kids love playdough like mine do? . Their favorite thing to do is open a bakery and make treats with their cookie cutters and beads. 😍 . This activity can keep them occupied for well over an hour, especially when they pull out their cash register/calculator and start taking orders.
Instagram post 2195411180515027523_8736387314 Are your children fascinated by the idea of keeping a tree INSIDE the house during the month of December? Several years ago, I remember my 15-month-old frantically signing TREE every time we passed a Christmas tree — whether we were at our house, someone else’s, church, or the shopping mall. It’s kind of a strange concept for our toddlers and preschoolers to understand. . First, we put a tree in the living room, then decorate it with lights and pretty objects. Then, we tell our young children to stay away and not touch it. 😂 . Now that our girls are a bit older, they understand that I need them to ask before touching anything on or near our tree. (Several of our ornaments have buttons for music or lines from favorite movies.) I just don’t want the tree coming down on top of them or one of our more fragile ornaments being broken accidentally. . I often find them sitting next to the Christmas tree or lying underneath it with a book. So I got up early this morning, and tucked a few library books about Christmas trees under our tree. For some reason, my girls are drawn to small piles of books here and there around the house. .
