Found some of these idea's from the book-The Diaper Bag Book for Toddlers


This week is about craft ideas or entertainment for your toddler. Things they can make or things you can make for them.

Bathtub Crayons
These thick and sturdy crayons are just right for toddlers.

Add one teaspoon of food coloring to one cup of laundry soap flakes. (Not detergent)
Add water by the teaspoonful, stirring constantly until the soap dissolves into a paste.
Press the paste into ice cube trays.
Let dry for a few days, until hard.
