Curiosity cups – making a pouring game for your baby
What you need
- Several small cups, small enough for your baby to hold
- Materials to fill cups with. These could be super messy like water or baby bubble bath, or dry items, like flour or scraps of fabric – or a mixture of both!
What to do
- Settle your baby down comfortably in a sitting position, with support if they need it, and offer them the cups over a tray or blanket (to contain as much mess as possible).
- Let your baby pick up and explore the cups. Perhaps they will pour everything out or stick their hands in!
Always supervise your baby as they will want to taste-test the contents of the cups.
Good to know
This is a perfect game to take outside. You can fill cups with water, soil, grass, leaves or sand to make cleaning up even easier to brush away!
