With a very busy and curious toddler, It's challenging to keep him contained. He is busy busy busy and has to be into everything. We recently gave him a little freedom after we baby proofed our cabinets...
he likes to explore window locks, pots and pans, spoons and water.. so when I cook meals, he will ask for water (Bah Bah). I'll give him a baking pan with spoons and measuring cups... he LOVES it. It'll keep him busy for 20-30 minutes.
somedays, I'll add other containers and soups spoons and he will transfer water from one container to another... He also likes ice cubes for fun!
and yes.. he will dunk his head in to blow bubbles. He's been doing this since he learned how to hold his breath in swim school!
Haha too cute!! I hear ya, I do the same to keep them busy :)
ReplyDeletei swear.. you buy a million toys and he likes junky greasy stuff hidden in our kitchen!
DeleteLove it! I always give A spoons, bowls, and pans to play with too! Otherwise she wants "up" while I'm chopping with knives... no go!
ReplyDeleteI know! He's been reaching the counter tops lately... I have to cook with only our 2 back stoves!! and he also loves sharp objects and plugs!!
DeleteYou have it sooo together! I need to start making your toddler meals and do more activities with Hadley!

DeleteHe is so cute! The water is a great idea! My little guy likes blowing bubbles too. Owen loves to play with the salad spinner while I cook dinner. We put some of his match box cars in and he pumps it up and down to watch them spin.
