I have been trying to focus on specific tasks for Sophia to enjoy while Audrey and I work on preschool “curriculum”. Sophia is eager to join in the fun and especially likes to drop coins into her sister’s piggy bank. This little activity will keep her busy for at least 15-20 minutes at a time. However, since I have been providing her coins from my own personal collection, Audrey seems to get richer while I am getting poorer!
Here is an inexpensive activity that Sophia loves! We used an old Parmesan jar to transfer dry penne pasta into the holes. Thin dry spaghetti would work with tiny holes too!
We are always looking for activities for our 15 month old while we do school with our 3 year old. I hadnt thought of a piggy bank and coins- I *hope* he is past the point of wanting to just eat them… 🙂
