Spring Activities for Your Little One
By Janine Lynn
Spring is here, so get out and enjoy!
Water Play
Pull out your boots and find a puddle to muck around in (or fill a wading pool with water). Then, bring out the food coloring, bubble bath, whisk, funnels, ladles, water wheel, etc., to have a wild 'n wet time!
Sand Play
Hop in the sandbox and use "tools" such as sieves, empty spice shakers, toilet rolls, plant pots, etc., to add to the fun.
Nature Scavenger Hunt
Alone or racing with a friend, see how many of the following items you can find: tree bark, acorn, dead leaf, seed, bone, sand, insect, twig, dead grass, spider web, rock, pine needle, clover, ladybug and bird.
Donut Birdfeeder
Welcome the birds back with a tasty treat! Sandwich a bagel between two plastic lids. Thread a string through the center and tie a big knot at the bottom. Hang from a tree.
