Let's get started with this week's great activities for toddlers! 

Shopping for Letters from A Little Pinch of Perfect

This is a great way to teach letter and number recognition. You can use it for teaching colors or animals too.

Simple Toy Car and Box Play from The Way He Plays

If you have too many toilet paper rolls hanging around the craft box you need to make this!

Nothing beats some outdoor fun - add some ribbons and it just got even better.

Some fab ideas here. Especially love the finger puppet idea. Most children love singing and using puppets would add an extra dimension. Thanks for sharing # ToddlerFunFriday
