Swipe across for a classic case of IG vs reality 💁🏻‍♀️
🌟
Sometimes it’s easy to be swept away by the wonderful ideas here on IG. But it’s important to remember WHO the play is for. Our little people are so very capable of playing - in fact, play is the very core of what it means to be a child!
🌟
So next time your little learners interact with an activity in a completely different way to what you’d planned, just remember that play doesn’t have to look a certain way to be successful.
🌟
All play is important whether it’s child-led or facilitated by you. A fancy Kmart hack. An extravagant small world. A mud puddle in the backyard. Upending the Tupperware drawers. Unravelling an entire roll of toilet paper. Beautifully prepared dramatic play spaces. Expensive Grimms rainbows. Secondhand blocks from salvos. All. Play. Matters.

One of the most popular blog posts I’ve written

One of the most popular blog posts I’ve written was all about busy bags...so I’ve written you another with 8 more simple ideas! 💥
🌟
Over the last few weeks, I’ve been testing a few of them with Audrey and it was so sweet watching her celebrate as she explored each one.
🌟
I’ve also put together an eBook full of tips, ideas, suggested materials AND bonus FREE PRINTABLES so that you can get started with busy bags too! 🎉 Just head to the link in my bio to check it out! 🥰 These are perfect for toddlers and young preschoolers!
🌟
We’ve used busy bags when I’ve had newborn babies to feed, when I’ve needed a few minutes hands-free to cook dinner and even for dinners out and holidays during the pre-covid days. They’re such handy little things to have prepared!

Want to take a sneaky look inside our board game and puzzle storage?!
🌟
This isn’t all of our board games but the majority of our puzzles and games live right here in our lounge room. We decided to move them out of the play room and into the buffet at our front door because we figured the kids would play with them more here in our family living space.
🌟
It’s been working so well and they’re getting so good at packing up when they’re finished. They’ve even gone straight to the cupboard to grab charades a few time’s when my sisters and brother have been over and it’s always hilarious 😂

Put your hand in the air if you feel overwhelmed by all the toys in your home right now?! 🙋🏻‍♀️
🌟
Last week I spent some time putting together a free eBook which is going to help you transform playtime in your home. And do you know what? The answer isn’t buying new toys! #SighOfRelief 🙅🏻‍♀️
🌟
The secret is toy rotation! We’ve been rotating toys for 6 years now and hand-on-heart, it has made such a difference in our home. Pack up time is a breeze. The kids play more creatively and they’re totally independent after putting in the hard work to prepare the environment in a way that facilitates all this wonderful play.
🌟
If you’d like to learn more, head to the link in my bio to grab my free toy rotation guide! I’ll walk you through my 5 step process and share lots of tips along the way! And if you have further questions, pop them in the comments below and I’ll do my best to answer them all! ❤️

Ready to get your play room SORTED?!
🌟
I created a collection of play room labels ready for you to sort and organise all your toys! My talented sister created the most stunning artwork for these labels - aren’t they gorgeous?!
🌟
Simply print them off, laminate, cut and attach with Velcro dots so you can change them around as needed. I printed a few copies because we have a lot of wooden toys 🙊 You can swipe across to take a little peek into our storage cupboard! Let me know if you’d like a full tour!
🌟
So what are you waiting for? Tag a friend who might be keen to get their toys sorted too and then grab your own set by following the link in my bio 😁

I know this is a bit controversial...But I LOVE

I know this is a bit controversial...But I LOVE edible sensory play! I do understand why many early years centres don’t allow food-based play but for our little Audrey, it was a very important part of her journey to starting solids.You see, she had very poor oral motor skills. After careful guidance from her team of occupational therapists, a dietician and a speech pathologist, it was recommended that we do alllll of the sensory play with as many different textured foods as possible. And you betcha I was all over that!These food-based sensory experiences allowed Audrey to explore food in a totally risk free environment. She was able to have a little taste without sitting in the high chair having an official ‘meal’ and she was able to practise moving the foods around in her mouth as she explored and played.Sensory play goes much deeper than being a fun way to spend 10 minutes with your little learner. These experiences are rich with so many opportunities to develop fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, oral motor skills, cause and effect and so much more. Check out the pincer grip on Audrey as she picked up these frozen peas!!!So I’m very firmly on the ‘yes to food play’ camp. What about you?

Did you know that uncooked polenta makes an amazin

Did you know that uncooked polenta makes an amazing sensory base for a construction small world?! 😱
🌟
We reuse these dry bases over and over and over so they are a really simple way to add some variety to our sensory play! This little construction tub was a winner with both of the big kids last year. We just added some construction vehicles and some loose parts all from our nature stash.
🌟
This kind of invitation is a great way to build vocabulary and oral language skills. In fact, any themed sensory tub is going to be a winner for language skill development and it’s also super inviting because kids love love love the opportunity to dig into a sensory tub!
🌟
Does your little learner have a keen interest in a particular topic or theme right now? Maybe you could create a sensory tub like this to extend on that learning a little more!
