Turning Household Items into Educational Toys

Article Category: Parenting

Author Name: Barbara Swisher-Richards

There are many ways and opportunities by which your child could learn at home. Aside from what you show and tell them, your child can personally learn by exploring his or her environment. A child generally makes use of his five special senses to familiarize himself with everything around him.

He uses his hands to feel the texture and the temperature of a certain object. He makes use of his sense of sight to navigate his way around the house. He makes use of his sense of smell and taste to identify the type of food he is eating. He also makes use of his sense of hearing to be able to identify your voice.

With the use of these five senses, a toddler is able to integrate himself with the world. One of the best ways to facilitate further development of these five special senses is by the use of an activity toy for toddlers. An activity toy for toddlers gives them the chance to explore their environment and interact with other people.

Though you can buy some educational toys for your child, you can save some money without compromising your kid's opportunity to learn by using several household items to come up with an activity toy for toddlers.

Here are some of the household items that you can use and the type of toys that you can make from them:

Household item # 1: Plastic fruits and vegetables and a cart or a basket.

If you have artificial fruits and vegetables or empty boxes of biscuits at home, then you can help your kid make an activity toy by putting them all in a mini cart and letting him play the role of a grown-up doing some grocery shopping. Your kid might have already witnessed you shopping in a grocery store before and it would not take a lot of time for him to remember that. You can even act as the cashier and engage your toddler into an hour of grocery shopping.

Household item # 2: Old Cardboard rolls

These cardboard rolls may seem useless to you, but not to your young kids. Make an interesting activity toy for toddlers from these cardboard rolls by turning them into baseball bats and have an exciting baseball game with your toddler. This is perfect for an indoor or an outdoor activity.

Household item # 3: Empty plastic bottles

Empty plastic bottles are made into various kinds of things, such as a lantern, a chair or even a bag! However, for your toddler, empty plastic bottles are best turned into bowling pins. You can even decorate these empty bottles with your toddler. If baseball is too tiring for you, then bowling is truly a must-try!

Household item # 4: Old socks and crayons

It is time to bring out those old socks and crayons for another fun activity time with your child! Make a fun activity toy for toddlers out of a white pair of socks by making a cute puppet. Let him draw the lips, the eyes, the nose, and ears while you cut out some black art papers to serve as the puppet's hair. This does not only promote fine motor skills development, but it also improves his knowledge on shapes and colors.
