Teeny Tiny Tot School

This empty Puffs box is the toy of the moment for J-jo.  
I cut a hole in the bottom, and the open part where the tissues was is really big, so the balls roll right out.
Of course, he likes to taste everything still.
Another of his favorite things is the cutlery tray.  The children's cutlery lies in a little basket in Bear's cupboard.  I simply take it out for J-jo to explore. (Then I wash them all before putting them back in the cupboard, but I don't mind the extra dishes because he really loves to transfer them from one container to the other and to taste each utensil. lol.)

To see what other tots are doing see 1+1+1=1

  1. That kleenex box is SO clever! Can't wait for baby N to get a little older to try it with her.

  3. I do something similar with my 11 month old. She loves to play with my pots and pans and my tupperware. So I take them all out for her and she goes to town...banging, putting lids on, etc. She loves to play with everything but her own toys!

  4. The kleenex box is a brilliant idea! You are such a good mama, letting J-jo explore the kid cutlery and then washing it all over again!
