An older sibling might have fun with this too. They can put the magnets in rows by color for baby or put pairs in the tin and practice matching. You could put the letters in and challenge your older child to find the letters of their name. Can they find the vowels? So many possibilities with such a simple activity!
I LOVE this idea! I will be using it this coming week with both my kiddos! (15 mos and 2 1/2 yrs) They are going to love it! (*I think* they sometimes surprise me. Sometimes I love it more than they do hehe) Thanks so much for sharing!

I can see both my girls having fun with this. Always such great ideas! Passed along a blogging award to you.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute idea! Sweet T will be ready for this before I know it. She's getting more and more difficult to keep entertained and she's only 15 weeks!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great idea. My littlest one is always trying to swipe the magnets of the easel while his brother is playing. Giving the baby his own magnets to work out of the muffin tins should bring some peace to my house... maybe temporary peace!
ReplyDeleteI saw this idea on Pinterest and included it on my 18 Ways to Create Learning Experiences with Children Using Muffin Tins post. Thanks for the great idea!
