Magic Scarves

I feel like I am lucky to be in the position where I have a kid at every age. A 5 month old, a 20 month old and a 3 year old. Because of this I am going to try hard to make activities for the babies too!

Here is the first one. What you need: A scarf, and an empty cardboard paper towel tube.
Stick the scarf into the tube and pull it out and in again. This is a versatile toy that uses stuff you already have on hand! Show your baby how to stuff it in and pull it out. I usually say "Where did it go?" or "Peek-A-Boo" "There it is" and my baby LOVES it. My older two love to entertain her with it as well.
This toy develops Object Permanence, Tactile Stimulation, and Eye-Hand Coordination. Try it with your baby, I bet they will squeal with delight like mine did! :)

PS NEXT FRIDAY is GIVEAWAY #2!!!!
