England is deep in snow and we are here sweltering in hot sun and stormy skies. One thing in common - what to do with your little ones when they can't go outside anymore? Today it was first too hot and sunny to play out then came a very wet and windy storm so no outside time for us today. Instead we decided to gather all those plastic bottles we had lying around after Christmas and make some fun toys to keep us entertained.
We made a great game of water filled bottle skittles simply adding a small amount of water to 6 similar sized plastic bottles then using our small plastic balls we had lots of fun rolling the balls and knocking down the skittles (just make sure the lids are on very tight). Our second game was shaky bottles. We filled the bottles with different household dry foods to make an array of interesting sounding shakers. Our favorites; black beans and rice.
What's kept your little people busy on those long afternoons?
