Fun Ideas for Toddlers!
So here is a post that I have been meaning to post for a while and it will be one of a couple I do today! 🙂 I wanted to post a few ideas that are very Montessori and perfect for the active toddlers that what to know everything! The first thing that I did was put together a Baby Treasure Basket for a friend of mine who is going to be having a baby soon! I think that it turned out really cool, and I think that has all sorts of things that any baby would love to explore! I used all natural materials and no plastic or polyester. The idea of a Baby Treasure Basket is that you offer an assortment of objects with different textures, sounds, and colors so that your baby can explore them at his leisure! Most babies will sit with a basket for a long time. If you want more information on Baby Treasure Baskets you can look here.

what kind of paint did you use on your peg people? Did you seal them with anything?
Thanks!

Hi Summer,
I just used regular acrylic paint, then my husband sealed them with a spray polyurethane. I knew that Pup didnt really put much in her mouth so I wasnt concerned. If you dont seal them, then the paint does tend to rub off on the other peg people, so sealing is a good idea. I know that Chasing Cheerios used water color for hers. Hope that helps! Happy schooling!
