I only had to demonstrate this for Harvey once and it sure got his attention quickly! It involves more participation than some of the activities as you have to keep setting up the bottles, but his enjoyment in knocking them down made it well worth it.
Materials:
- Plastic bottles (spice bottles, cold drink bottles)
- Ball
Set up your bottles next to each other. Encourage your child to roll the ball towards the bottles to knock them over. Start close to the bottles and over time get further and further away from them to allow for more of a challenge.
This idea isn’t JUST for 1 year olds!
There are 40 more activities in the book and ALL include an activity variation AND “As They Grow” section, making this a Grow-With-Them book.
Activities are suited to 1, 2, 3 and even 4 year olds!
You’ll really get your money’s worth!
