The other morning, while Joshua was asleep, I needed to tidy up the kitchen, and Daniel playing around my feet with his diggers gave me an idea. I poured some lentils and chickpeas into a washing up bowl and left him to it. It was fun standing by and watching him play by himself. He added a couple more diggers, a cup, a bowl and spoons. This activity was great for fine motor skills, Daniel loved scooping, tipping and pouring the lentils from one digger/cup to another. It kept him entertained for about half an hour, which we all know in toddler time is about one hundred years! A definite thumbs up from us both, diggers are a little obsession around here right now and this was a great way to bring it to life, until the weather warms up and we can dig in the garden!!
Lots of Love
