Building Week
Welcome to Building Week
Get out those building blocks your toddler hasn't played with for months and get ready for building week!
Book and Rhyme of the Week
Check out Busy Building Site for this week's book. And why don't you sing London Bridge is Falling Down?
Sensory Play
Pour those building blocks into an open tub and leave them out. See what happens. Building towers, knocking them down, hiding the blocks around the room, wrapping them up and tracing around them to match the shapes. Turns out simple can be fun.
Arts and Crafts
You need your washable paint for this week's arts and crafts activity. Use your building blocks as stamps and see what patterns you can make. Added win if you can use the same set of colours as your blocks and match them up after the paint is dry.
Active Play
Keeping it simple for this week's active play idea. Take any sofa or scatter cushions you can find and put them on the floor. Challenge your toddler to jump across them, stack them up or drive cars over them. Let your imagination run wild.
Join us next week for more fun ideas for play
What you'll need for next week's theme
