Toddler Sewing FUN!
Here's a great way to teach your toddler
about sewing. Take a Styrofoam egg crate and cut the top
off. Next, cut out the bottom circle of a few cups
( see picture). Make sure the openings are big enough so
that a small infant spoon can go through. Then take a
small plastic infant spoon and tie a piece of ribbon to
it. Next, show your toddler how to push the spoon
through one of the holes and pull it out the other side.
Then push the spoon through a different hole and pull
the spoon through. Repeat as many times as you want!
Supplies
Needed:
-
styrofoam egg crate
- scissors
- ribbon
- plastic infant spoon
Tips/Suggestions:
-
This is a great activity to help your toddler develop
dexterity.
- Let your toddler be creative and experiment with this
activity.
- Your toddler might want to just crush the egg crate
and that's okay! Every activity is a learning activity!
- When your toddler is done. Put the final product aside
so that you can show "daddy or mommy" at the end of the
day!
