Things To Do with Small Children

Toddler Essentials:

using dandelion stems as a bubble blower (hollow on inside)

mud pies and witches brews

nature walks with a magnifying glass and a basket or a mini fishing vest with lots of pockets

puddle jumping

pressing flowers in spring and summer, dipping leaves in beeswax in the fall

homemade play dough and moon sand and oobleck and slime. I’m a big sensory play fan!

making walnut boats with walnut halves and sticks and leaves and a little play dough and sending them for a journey down a creek

skipping stones

building fairy houses

Mushroom Walks

Look for fossils
