Toddle Along Tuesday - Cheap ways to entertain your little one

Toddle Along Tuesday - 
Cheap ways to entertain your little one









What better way to have fun on this dreary, rainy Tuesday than linking up with Growing Up Geeky for Toddle Along Tuesday!

When thinking about this week's topic, the first idea that comes to mind is BOXES! Henry absolutely loves boxes, of any shape, but honestly, the bigger the better.

He loves to....

~turn them into a drum set
~pick and throw around whatever might be in them
~push them around the entire house as a make-shift walker. This might be the cutest use ever.
~open and close them, and if he can fit, crawl into them.

Oh oh what did I get in the mail?

Let's play with the paper, too!

PAPER is another great toy for your little one! The possibilities are truly endless what they will do with paper. It really is true that the wrapping paper is 1,000 times more exciting than the gift inside!

I love pulling this around mom, and hitting you in the face with it!

 BALLOONS are another form of infinite entertainment. They last forever. At first just pulling on the string is fun but then, as the balloon itself sinks down, your little one can bat and play with it, and drag it everyone everyone they go.

Tupperware is my fav!

Last but not least, there are pots TUPPERWARE CONTAINERS / POTS & PANS. But, remember that pulling them off and throwing them on the floor is the only fun part. Mom and Dad get to pick them all up, not so fun.

I hope you enjoyed a few of my ideas on how to entertain your little one with common household items! There is more around than you might think :)
