 
Shake it Game!
Here's a fun game to play with your toddler, and you
only need a few simple supplies. Find three of the same
containers (24 oz cottage cheese containers used in
photo) and a few "noisy" small toys. Put all three
containers down on a blanket in front of your toddler.
Then open up one container and put in a couple toys (balls, bells, rattles) and put the lid back on. Then
move the containers around and mix them up. Now ask your
toddler if she knows where the balls are. If she is
unsure, have her pick up each container and shake it.
The first time she picks up a container and there
is no noise, open up the container and show her that
there's nothing inside. When she hears a sound inside
then say "Oh!? Do you think the toys are in this one?
Let's check!" Then after you find the toys, celebrate
and tell her good job. Close it up and mix the
containers up again. Now let her shake them to
find the toys again!
Supplies Needed-
- 3 identical containers
- small toys/balls/bells
- blanket
Tips/Suggestions-
- You can always use more than 3 containers to make
it more fun! And put some toys in 2 of the containers.
- PLEASE ALWAYS SUPERVISE YOUR CHILD WITH THE SMALLER
TOYS.
