How to keep on active toddler busy on a rainy day? I am sure that’s one concern on every mother’s mind. Try the activity below and keep your child busy for at least 30 mins – 1hrs.
Bag of beans is a simple yet exciting toddler activity which would help your child develop sensory as well as motor skills. So let’s get started.
Things you’ll need:
- A box or a small bath tub ( lying around in the house)
- 4-5kgs of rice, dried beans ( I used jowar grains as they are one of the cheapest)
- A few cups, scoops, and toys from around the house.
Fill the tub with beans and use cups of different sizes/colors so you could talk about scooping beans in large cups / small cups/ green color cups/red color cups.
You could also hide his small toys in the grain and ask him to search for it. This activity can keep your child entertained for hours.
PS – Spread a large cloth on the floor before starting the activity, so it is easy to wind up the small beans at the end.
I would love to hear about more such fun activities from you. Do share what your kid loves?
