I thought it would be a nice idea to start a toy/play type of thread as sometimes its hard to think of what to play or do with babies and toddlers and toys can be so expensive to keep buying and they soon get bored of them.
So Ill start with 'treasure baskets' Some of you probably go to baby sensory so will have came across these ideas before but Kynon loves his 'treasure basket' which is filled with random objects from around the house. I only give it to him once a day at most for a little while so he doesn't get bored and have 2 baskets I swap about and add to. It totally works when I need 5 minutes to get tea on.
Here's some links to get started with some great ideas of what you could include:
