Christmas Activity Tray Ideas

Christmas Activity Tray Ideas

N (23 months) has been showing a lot of interest in matching, sorting, and basically anything her brother is doing. So I set up a few of my Christmas Activity Tray ideas that she could work on. I do the activity with her a few times and then she is usually able to do it independently after that. They have been a hit and this has been a great opportunity to teach her to pick up one thing before moving on to another!

Here is what we’ve had on the shelf lately:

Thanks for the great ideas. My 20 month old is just starting to be interested in activities and this is a nice starting point to help me figure out a few things for him to do.
