It's Playtime: Toddler Time

Being pregnant, I'm thinking about all the wonderful activities I'll be able to do with my baby and toddler. Activities I missed with my son because I was working full time and my daughter because, well, the internet wasn't what it is now 9 years ago.  So this week on It's Playtime I'm featuring 3 easy toddler activities for you and your little one to enjoy.

You and your toddler will enjoy some outdoor time with this Find a Fish game from famiglia&seoul.  

Get 5 minutes of rest with this simple Colander and Pipe Cleaners activity shared by Healthymama Info.  More pipe cleaner activities can be found in her post.

Water and sponges, what could be simpler play for a curious toddler?  Shared by Mama Mia's Heart 2 Heart.
