Release the pencil – use that strong finger to set it free

What you need 

  • A pencil  
  • A peg or clip trouser hanger 

What to do 

  1. Open the peg or hanger clip and securely insert the pencil.  
  2. Invite your toddler to come and open the hanger or peg by placing their index finger on the top lever and pressing on it.  

Good to know 

If this seems a little challenging at first, swap the pencil for something chunkier, like a chunky crayon or perhaps a plastic toy. You could gradually make it harder by using smaller objects to ‘set free’.
