You have managed to arrange some fabulous ideas for this summer. Parents will surely be bookmarking this page to get back to it, when ever they feel the need for some fun summer activities for their toddlers.
kinworm, Ah yes countless hours of building and digging in the sand. My daughters and I all love building and digging in the sand as well. Its such fun especially with all the creative sand toys. Hey thanks for the great tip on the do it yourself sandbox, great idea.
Great ideas, Katie. Most toddlers love sand and water play as it's so much fun. When my little girl was a toddler, we could not afford to buy her a sandpit. So we found a huge, under-the-bed plastic box and filled that with sand instead so she had a diy sandpit. And she loved it. Now she's bigger, we've been able to purchase a large sandpit and it's one of her favorite activities seeing as we live a long way from any beach.
Tolovaj. Great point toddlers need to get out and go. The ease of added structured play benefits we the parents.
It really depends. I guess toddlers like everything when they are in the right mood: sand is for creation, water for partying, gardening for some contemplating...
Best of all: kids don't need much to have real fun!
