So... back to the busy bags. Brady loves playing with them! Along with the play date I've been working on at ton that I liked too. Then at the bottom are some AMAZING $1 store finds that have worked well with quite time too.
|
Shadow puppets with Flashlight from Harbor Freight and card stock... I did put them on Popsicle sticks, after I took the picture |
|
Legos! Works with colors, patterns, and building. Brady doesn't get the patterns yet, but he likes to match the colors. |
|
Popsicle stick puzzles. I used 6 fat ones, and did a shape on each side. Brady LOVES carrying them around and working with shapes. |
|
Snake Button with felt squares |
|
Found this on a blog... 6 different animals with 3 body pieces. It's fun to make "silly" animals, and the magnets help keep them in place better. |
|
Button color sorting |
|
I bought a HUGE bag of pom poms from Amazon and I didn't really care for it cuz it didn't have a lot of colors... more tie die. I decided to put magnets on Popsicle sticks so you can match them or make patterns. |
|
Caterpillar counting... I'm a big fan of putting magnets on them so it's not frustrating with them rolling everywhere |
|
I took a mini Gerber Baby Food container... Brady LOVES it! |
|
Just yarn, beads and cardboard... this lasted 15min of an hour car ride. The other side has 1, 2, 3...10 beads for counting. |
|
Another print off Pinterest... A-Z cards with color pompom matching and Alphabet. The picture is B for Balloons. I put magnets on them so it's easier. |
|
Popsicle color matching. Brady loves to eat the popsicles! |
|
Thread the buttons |
|
Paint chip matching and clothes pins |
Then some great finds at the dollar store!
|
I lied... this was $3 target |
|
Stacking, color, numbers... so much fun! DICE are the BEST THINGS EVER!!! (at least Brady thinks so) |
|
Erasers with magnets attached. I was going to have him match them , but it also works out to just play and make pictures with them.. not sure how he will like it. |
|
Mini Dominos! another BEST $1 find! We have done counting, colors, and matching |
|
This is a matching game, shapes, and puzzle on the other side. for $1! I love it cuz it's thick cardboard and has handled all of Tanners chewing with no problem!!! |
Well, I hope those were some fun ideas! I am all busy bagged out... lol. I am excited to see how they work on our long road trip! I'll let you know!
