Ball
Ramp Box
Tired
of the same old ball game! Here's a fun ball activity
that your toddler will enjoy (and you will also). Take
an empty box (diaper boxes work great) and tape the
opening shut. Then cut a big circle out of one end (see
pic.) Next cut the top of the box out, leaving one end
opposite of the circle end intact. Then push the top
down into the box and tape the one end to the inside of
the box, making a sort of ramp. Set the box up so that
the circle cutout is on top and then let your toddler
drop a ball into the hole. It will hit the "ramp" and
roll along the floor
Supplies Needed-
- box (diaper box)
- utility knife/scissors to cut box
- tape
- balls
Tips/Suggestions-
- Let your toddler drop a bunch of
balls at once into the circle hole and see where they
all end up!
- For the more athletic toddlers, see if they can throw
a ball into the circle opening.
- If your toddler doesn't want to put the ball down the
circle opening, then you drop the ball and let your
toddler go retrieve the ball. (or have him sit in front
of the ramp so that the ball rolls to him)
