Looking for a super simple yet engaging play activity for your toddler? This easy setup uses items you likely already have at home and will keep your little one entertained while building important developmental skills.
What You'll Need:
An old cardboard roll
Tape
Small items of various shapes and textures (cotton balls, pom-poms, small wooden blocks, etc.)
How to Set It Up:
Simply tape the cardboard roll to a wall surface at a height your child can easily reach. Then, hand them different small objects to drop inside and watch them pop out at the bottom!
Why We Love This Activity:
This hands-on play experience is fantastic for:
Fine motor skills – Encourages grasping and hand-eye coordination.
Shape & colour recognition – Your little one will begin to notice differences in objects.
Sensory play – Experimenting with different materials enhances tactile learning.
Perfect for Any Weather!
Whether it’s a rainy day or the midday heat is keeping you inside, this activity is a great way to keep little hands busy. Best of all? It kept our toddler engaged for a solid 45 minutes —a win in any parent's book!
The Perfect Pairing: SOHLS Shoes
Keeping little feet supported during indoor play is just as important as when they're outside! SOHLS shoes are lightweight, durable, and designed for all-day comfort, making them the perfect choice for active toddlers who love to explore—even inside. Their non-slip soles provide extra grip for those wobbly first steps or energetic play sessions on slippery floors.
Give this simple activity a go and watch your toddler light up with excitement—sometimes the best play ideas are the easiest ones!
